[issue1441530] socket read() can cause MemoryError in Windows

[Márcio Faustino]

I got that error on Windows 7 Professional 64 bits, using Python 2.6.4 64 bits.

I just changed the "imaplib.IMAP4_SSL" class, by making the "read" and "readline" functions use "cStringIO.StringIO()" instead of an array of strings for "chunks = []".
