This is a partial fix to the issue of servers disconnecting unexpectedly; in
this case the 421 says they are disconnecting, so we close the socket and

In Python2 Popen uses *FILE objects, which wind up buffering even though
subprocess defaults to no buffering.  In Python3, subprocess streams really
are unbuffered by default, but the imaplib code assumes read is buffered.  This
patch uses the default buffer size from the io module to get buffered streams
from Popen.

The imap protocol is too complicated to write a test for this simple
change with our current level of test infrastructure.
