It should be ssl.

It will be generated when there is any data to log.

The problem might be related to CRLF confusion in imap.el / Windows /
OpenSSL.  Can you try frobbing `imap-client-eol' and (maybe more 
importantly) `imap-server-eol'?  Try experimenting with \r\n and \n 
values.  You'd might want to edebug imap-ssl-open and look in the  
*nnimap* server buffer for what kind of eol character is returned.

You could try frobbing `imap-process-connection-type' as well.
