Subject: #16039/#20118: temporarily skip failing imaplib SSL test.
X-Git-Tag: v2.7.8~153
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1d2ef64df640fd76acad27514e01de00e3d80748;p=python

#16039/#20118: temporarily skip failing imaplib SSL test.

The fix the test is testing prevents a DOS attack, and the failure
mode will also prevent the DOS attack, so for now skip the test.
Either the test or the code does need fixing, however.
