[New-bugs-announce] [issue39259] poplib.POP3/POP3_SSL should reject timeout = 0

[Dong-hee Na]

New submission from Dong-hee Na <donghee.na92 at gmail.com>:

Since poplib.POP3/POP3_SSL's implementation depends on socket.makefile, the client should reject if the timeout is zero.
Because socket.makefile said that 'The socket must be in blocking mode' and if we set timeout to zero, the client does not operate as normal.
