If there's absolutely nothing in the log, then either a) the initial
connect() is blocking forever, which doesn't really make much sense, or
b) it's not trying to connect at all.  If it fails to connect for any
reason, it'll at least put *something* in the log.

What happens if you click the 'New mail folders' button in the settings
for that account?  Is it able to show your mail folders?
