            Bug ID: 348008
           Summary: SSLv2 traffic seen during IMAP exchange
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: 1.13.0
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

While watching the traffic between Akonadi (Kmail) and my Dovecot server (IMAP)
I notice that every so often I see an SSLv2 packet being sent along with the
TLSv1.2 IMAP traffic.  I'm concerned since SSLv2 is a big no-no and since my
server doesn't support SSLv2 I'm curious why I Akonadi would even try to send
such a packet.  Any ideas?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Check email
2. Watch the packets

Actual Results:  
See an occasional SSLv2 packet.

Expected Results:  
Never, ever, ever see SSLv2.  Ever.
