imap port doesn't work either, so probably starttls is not
supported.

Marcus pointed me to
<URL:http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html> and I found a
working ssl client.

Now, I'm able to move one step further: the stream comes up. However,
emacs seems to hang at that point. I followed the code, and it appears
to be looping inside imap-open-ssl at the following lines (marked
with -->):

          (with-current-buffer buffer
            (goto-char (point-min))
-->         (while (and (memq (process-status process) '(open run))
-->                     (set-buffer buffer) ;; XXX "blue moon" nntp.el bug
-->                     (goto-char (point-max))
-->                     (forward-line -1)
-->                     (not (imap-parse-greeting)))
-->                     (not (imap-parse-greeting)))
-->           (accept-process-output process 1)
-->           (sit-for 1))

I'm not sure what it is waiting on. In the *imap* <server> bufer, I see:

* OK Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server version 6.5.7638.1 
(<server>) ready.

But, nothing after that. So, it appears that the stream was opened, but
gnus is expecting something it doesn't get.

Any ideas?
