I did. The output can be seen at http://pastebin.com/59JYTzPQ

That did create some output, but it was quite uninformative:

[15:19:42] <- elmo-imap483 check                                                                                                                                          
[15:19:42] -> elmo-imap483 OK Completed
*elmo-imap483* OK arrived
