Description

Some servers support pipelining. I.e. combining multiple commands into a single TCP message.
It would be nice if the library could support it.

RFC details can be found at https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2920

Research direction

Start by reading RFC 2920 and reviewing how HaskellNet currently handles commands for POP3, SMTP, and IMAP. Determine which protocols and command paths need pipelining support, then define tests that demonstrate multiple commands being combined into one TCP message while preserving correct responses.
