D.8.3. Network Services::IMAP Mail

The Network Services::IMAP Mail probe determines if it can connect to the IMAP 4 service on the

request.
The required Expect value is the string to be matched against after a successful connection is made
to the IMAP server. If the expected string is not found, the probe returns a CRITICAL state.
