You can't open socket connections in App Engine. There's no way at
present to connect to an email server; the workaround is to have
smtp2web post your email messages to your application instead of
having the application try to fetch them from somewhere.
You could also build an app running elsewhere that reads your email
and provides a REST interface to it.
