Fixed.  I made assumptions about the zero-data-to-send case.
Managesieve draft was unhelpful, I'll find the appropriate forum for
that, but ktrace was my friend in the end.

This also fixes the lack of final server verification in case the auth
mechanism supports that -- ie, DIGEST-MD5.  So the previously posted
version should be replaced with this one as it's a security risk to not
be able to verify the server; STARTTLS should have done that for us, but
a man-in-the-middle attack could have dropped that.

Other changes are that some junk has been stripped out, a bug-fix in an
error condition, and the password prompt goes to stderr to allow stdout
to be captured by a script.

Oh, and version numbers come from a Subversion repository -- this isn't
really the 63rd version ;^) since the first commit of this script was
v62.

If anyone is seriously considering using this, please let me know and
I'll clean up the action stuff and let scripts be supplied, just as for
sieveshell, instead of the simple one-shot action stuff here, which was
provided for embedded control where expect-like interaction isn't used;
I decided to write for a simple API.
