I was unable to make any significant progress in this issue. Too bad.

Today I found this link in my inbox: it is a backport of the future
"ssl" module from future python 2.6 to previous python revisions:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ssl
http://docs.python.org/dev/library/ssl.html

The module will be included in python 2.6 (and Python 3000, of course)
and it is *VERY* easy to use. It seems to support timeouts just fine.

I will integrate it in my POP3 server this week. Hope this SSL try be
the last one!.
