Server chose unsupported or disabled protocol: SSLv3

Trying to connect to an imap server from an app that uses javamail to connect. I can't modify the code, but it's throwing the 'Server chose unsupported or disabled protocol: SSLv3' error, and I can't find a property that I can override to enable that protocol. The server I'm connecting to does not support TLSv1 (yes, it's old).

You should be able to set a specific socket factory using SSLv3 instead of TLSv1 via the mail.smtp.ssl.socketFactory property of JavaMail (see the Socket Factories section in the JavaMail release notes and MailSSLSocketFactory).

Before returning the SSLSocket in your SSLSocketFactory implementation (createSocket), use setEnabledProtocols to allow SSLv3.
