Let me try. Ok, I've commented the line and getmail still delivers
mail. Let's wait for a week to be sure. I'll get back to you after
this period.

By the way, I found another setblocking(1) for Python23 code in
_pop3ssl.py, which is for some legacy Python versions, AFAIU. Sure,
this is not my case, just letting you know.

Thanks for helping.
