[Dev] IMAP and SMTP accounts defined in external parcel

[Morgen Sagen]

If you have IMAP or SMTP accounts defined in a personal parcel.xml  
file, you will need to modify them because of a schema change.  Brian  
has replaced the "useSSL" boolean attribute for IMAP and SMTP account  
Kinds with a new "connectionSecurity" enumeration attribute which can  
be set to "NONE", "TLS", or "SSL":

    
http://o11n.org/docs/current/model/parcels/osaf/contentmodel/mail/ 
AccountBase/connectionSecurity/

(Note, the following instructions don't apply to any WebDAV accounts  
you might have defined -- their schema hasn't changed)

So for any IMAP or SMTP accounts you have defined in your parcel.xml...
...replace:  <useSSL value="False" /> with <connectionSecurity  
value="NONE" />
...and replace: <useSSL value="True" /> with <connectionSecurity  
value="SSL" />

I believe for SMTP you can now set connectionSecurity to "TLS", but not  
yet for IMAP.  Brian can correct me, and elaborate on what TLS is,  
perhaps.
