SSL wrapped sieve support (ala "imaps") for timsieved [LONG]

[Edward Rudd]

the PHP Pear Net_Sieve does not support CRAM-MD5/DIGEST-MD5 currently..
only plain and login.. I'm working on a patch to get it to support them
by using the Auth_SASL PEAR class. I should have it done late wednesday 
and posting it to the author of the pear class.
