Log Message:
Implement part of [ 753708 ] Support POP over SSL

If the use_ssl option is on (or automatic and the POP3 server port is 995) then sb_server
 will try and make a SSL/TLS connection to the server, rather than a regular connection.
 Note that the connection between sb_server and the mail client is *not* SSL/TLS -
 I think that would mean we needed to have SSL/TLS server code, which doesn't look
 easy, and isn't in the Python stdlib.  That's almost certainly a local (or at least
 controlled) connection, anyway, so that shouldn't matter.

This *mostly* works (with Python 2.4 or 2.3.5 - 2.3.4 has an outstanding bug)).

The remaining problem is that if the incoming data is larger than the buffer (4096)
 then the final chunk isn't received until a new command is send.  This screws all
 sorts of things up.  I can't figure out why that is though - select.select seems
 to ignore the remaining bit waiting (maybe select.select works differently with SSL
 sockets?).  I'll have another crack at it tomorrow, unless someone else figures it
 out overnight.
