Yes, that's possible if your Python's socket module is compiled with SSL
enabled.

This doesn't work out of the box, but implementing it should be
straightforward. You can look at how smtplib does it (FakeSocket,
FakeFile classes and starttls method) for Python 2.2 (or CVS), then you
should be able to implement SSL for imaplib similarly.
