       Stefan Seifert <nine@cpan.org>

host
       Sets the host name (or IP address) of the IMAP server.

   port
       Optionally set the port to connect to, defaults to 143.  If you specify port 993, IO::Socket::SSL will be
       used for connecting.

       This plugin implements the Catalyst::Authentication v.10 API. Read that documentation first if you are
       upgrading from a previous version of this plugin.

       This plugin uses "Mail::IMAPClient" to let your application authenticate against an IMAP server.  The
       used imap client object is stored on the stash as imapclient for use in other components.
