In Python2 Popen uses *FILE objects, which wind up buffering even though subprocess defaults to no buffering. In Python3, subprocess streams really are unbuffered by default, but the imaplib code assumes read is buffered. This patch uses the default buffer size from the io module to get buffered streams from Popen. Much debugging work and patch by Diane Trout. The imap protocol is too complicated to write a test for this simple change with our current level of test infrastructure.
