Better UID handling

Open rtucker opened this issue 14 years ago • 0 comments

Per the RFC: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-2.3.1.1

  1. The combination of mailbox name, uidvalidity value, and uid is unique on a server
  2. If uidvalidity increments, uids are no longer guaranteed to be as they were for a lower uidvalidity
  3. uids are assigned in a strictly ascending order

I think this could be used to improve uid handling a lot.
