Comment 2 for bug 671940

Hi Uday, I didn't realize you had such a precise idea of what the
issue is. that's quite exciting. is there anything I can do? what
does "good enough" below mean? in my case messages are simply
downloaded to my local computer and nothing is left on the imap
server. thanks for looking into this! E
