This patch adds sslclientcert and sslclientkey configuration
options which are passed through to imaplib in order to allow
the use of client certificates for authentication.

* File darwin.patch added
OK, I finally installed an IMAPS server on my iMac, so I could test a
little further. For some reason, fixing the read() method in
imaplibutil.py did not seem to work (it hung on connecting to the
server) - however, modifying the file imapserver.py similarly to the
non-SSL case fixed the crash.
I also reduced the chunk size to 100k instead of 1M, as 1M seemed to
still trigger the memory error in some cases. Ah, and I added a
platform test, so that the patch does essentially nothing on
non-Darwin machines ...
So, still no guarantee, but the attached patch works for me. Any
comments ?
(If noone here screams in horror at my code, I will include the patch
into the Fink package and see what happens there.)

Well it was a bit unclear but there's a patch for offlineimap attached
to Guido's message:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=10;filename=support-GSSAPI-via-pykerberos.diff;att=1;bug=359213
I've tried it out and it works great! Except that if the Kerberos
layer throws an exception it wouldn't fail over to plain
authentication properly. Attached is a slightly reworked patch that I
tested it in the following situations:
1. python-kerberos uninstalled, with kerberos credentials.
Prompted for password authentication as expected.
2. python-kerberos installed, with kerberos credentials.
Keberos authentication was successful and my mail was fetched
without password prompting. Yeehaw!
3. python-kerberos installed, with no kerberos credentials.
Prompted for password authentication as expected.
I think those are all the interesting situations. So I think this is
ready to go in, with a Suggest on python-kerberos (>=
1.0+mk080218-1).

Added WrappedIMAP4_SSL class to help fix up performance of SSL
Standard imaplib.py is really bad with this, since it reads one
character at a time.

I just noticed that the version of offlineimap I've been using
(3.99.17) is well over four years old. How time flies. I haven't
had any problems with it, but out of curiosity I decided to pull in
5.99.2 from the fedora repository. It turns out to take
consistently over twice as long as the old version to sync the same
account. Is this expected?

The following changeset is the one responsible for the difference in
speed I was noticing between the imaplib.py that was packaged with
older versions of offlineimap and the one that comes with python:
* /offlineimap/head: changeset 169
More optimizations -- this time fix readline() to not work
character-by-character!
