[MlMt] Cannot connect to iCloud mailbox

[Steve Mayer]

Scott,

   You should have received an email from Apple a few weeks back 
concerning the requirement of using app specific passwords for third 
party apps accessing iCloud.  It appears they turned this on today.

   I was able to generate an app specific password for MailMate and the 
login worked again fine.
