I took a look w/ tcpdump, Mail.app IMAP+SSL appears to be fine, nicely
obfuscated. Mail.app authenticated SMTP through smtp.mac.com appears to
try to start TLS, but the connection closes, a new port 25 connection is
opened and AUTH happens in the clear (AUTH=PLAIN) and the message is sent
in the clear.
