The so-called UIDVALIDITY value of the mailbox “INBOX” has changed. MailMate has to resynchronize the mailbox, that is, purge the local cache and refetch the messages of the mailbox.

I think this may have been caused by the mailboxes actually being different between the production and test servers:

1. I cloned my mail server `prod.example.com` to `test.example.com`.
2. I migrated Courier to Dovecot on `test.example.com`.
3. I added an account to my IMAP client to connect to `prod.example.com` and downloaded mail. 4. To simulate migration, I just edited my IMAP client settings to change `prod.example.com` to `test.example.com`, but in the meantime the Maildir contents on prod changed, causing the UIDVALIDITY to change.

Is that a likely explanation?
