Comment (by kevin8t8):

 Thanks for the bug report.

 Indeed, not only is it performing an n-squared search from the results, it
 is doing this twice.  I'll push a fix shortly for the double-call to
 uid2msgno().

 Unfortunately, the msgno is not necessarily the same as the IMAP MSN, so
 we can't just swap the UID SEARCH for a SEARCH.  I'll start looking into
 fixing this though, because that kind of performance is not acceptable.
