Hi, Jidanni,

This doesn't make a lot of sense to me.  There's no difference in the
IMAP(-SSL) connection code between those versions of getmail -- none at all.

And if you're saying that 4.32.0 can connect to a given IMAP-SSL server, but
4.40.x cannot connect to that same server -- getmail has never specified an
SSL version to connect with, because historically that wasn't supported by the
Python stdlib.  It sounds to me like there must be another difference between
the two configurations -- something lower in the stack that affects which SSL
version is chosen (if that's the problem here).

Are the two using different Python interpreters?  Maybe they've been compiled
with different options, or linked against different SSL libs?

Or perhaps, is one or both of those Debian packages patching my source?  I
can't make them behave differently here, but I don't know what server user(s)
are having problems with either.

Some hints on how to reproduce the problem, and what the problem actually is,
would be useful.

Thanks,

Charles
