3.2 introduces SSL contexts, which allow bundling SSL configuration options, certificates and private keys into a single (potentially long-lived) structure.
http://docs.python.org/dev/py3k/library/ssl.html#ssl.SSLContext

The POP3_SSL constructor should allow passing an SSL context object instead of a key/cert pair.

Patch in attachment.
The same approach adopted for ftplib (issue 8806) was used.

There's the problem mentioned by Ezio: it breaks compatibility if someone passed a timeout to POP3_SSL by position (rather than by name).

Committed in r84144 including "context" being the last constructor argument.
