Is there any way to support imaplib of python in google app engine.

I want to access gmail inbox using google app engine in python. The other way also exist to do this task. But I want it to do with imap.

I searched a lot. Reason why google app engine not support imaplib is that it not support SSL socket.

Any way I how to resolved it, Is there anyway exist?

Thanks to Tim Hoffman for pointing out the brand-new support for SSL in App Engine. The documentation for it is here: https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/sockets/ssl_support.

EDIT: Unfortunately, sockets are only available for paid apps. (https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/sockets/overview#limitations-and-restrictions)

If it's not too much I'd recommend that you buy $5 of App Engine credit till the feature comes out of beta. Then I'm pretty sure that they'll offer a free usage tier.

Hope this helps.
