I have built the library with ssl support (make slx IP6=4) that should
set the SSLTYPE=nopwd' according to the build docs.

wrt. the DNS suggestion the log shows the resolved IP ( [Trying IP
address [72.14.221.111]] ) so everything fine as far as the name
resolving goes. Just in case I tried to set the hostlist to
"[72.14.221.111]:587/tls/user=gmail_user" and the result is the same.

Thanks for the suggestions: I think they answer part of my question
(i.e. the problem does not seem to be caused by some misconfiguration
of the UW IMAP library or the call to it).

I guess the next step would be to look into the Alpine sources (the
thing I wanted to avoid due to the size of the sources).

If you have any other suggestions I would very much appreciate them :)

Thanks,
Sorin
