[Twisted-Python] Need working examples of imap4 client.

[Pywinder Singh]

Phil,

Much obliged.

Was able to isolate and confirm that the real issue is that login is hanging
for some reason, and causing the timeout message. I suspect SSL/TLS issues,
which at least gives me a decided place to start investigating.

Thanks again for the code, it was sanity inducing to say the least. ;)
