Summary: SSL support for poplib

Initial Comment:
I was surprised to find poplib doesn't
have support for SSL.

Any reason why this hasn't been added?

I need this ability for my own use, so
I'd be willing to write the support for
this if there is interest in including it
in poplib.py.

I seems like it would be easy to add a
POP3_SSL subclass similar to IMAP4_SSL
in imaplib.
