Same behavior with the patch. Sigh.

I can't think I'm doing something unique here ... surely others run
WinXP and NT Emacs with gnus and nnimap. Is this a known problem? Any
idea why it works on a Mac and not on Windows?
    
    Alternatively, you could try GNUTLS and change the nnimap stream from
    ssl to tls.

I've had zero luck finding a binary (or anything that would compile to
a binary) of starttls.exe on Windows ... a rare beast indeed. So
perhaps with this I will have better luck.
