POP3 and IMAP Mailboxes
-----------------------
Mailbox URIs are in the normal URI format::
protocol://username:password@domain
Basic IMAP Example: ``imap://username:password@server``
Basic POP3 Example: ``pop3://username:password@server``
Most mailboxes these days are SSL-enabled;
if yours is, add ``+ssl`` to your URI.
Also, if your username or password include any non-ascii characters, they should be URL-encoded
(for example, if your username includes an ``@``, it should be changed to ``%40`` in your URI).
If you have an account named ``youremailaddress@gmail.com`` with a password of ``1234`` on GMail,
which uses a POP3 server of 'pop.gmail.com' and requires SSL,
you would enter the following as your URI::
pop3+ssl://youremailaddress%40gmail.com:1234@pop.gmail.com
