Hmm. Each uidlist has: 1. entry with filename X 2. entry with a different filename but with GUID X (=message was copied elsewhere and back) 3. entry once again with a filename X So .. I guess this has to do with copying the same message back and forth, possibly expunging it in the middle. I'll try to reproduce tomorrow.
