Should have remembered that.
However, that probably means that the problem is with 1&1 having a
broken IMAP server (which doesn't surprise me, given how badly broken
their envelope-to headers are).
I'm using the UIDL support against a POP3 box in a similar situation
and have had no problems with it in the last 2 years. Maybe it's
worth seeing if moving to POP3 solves your problem?
