Re: [Evolution] IMAP Synchronizing Error

[Troy Roberts <troy pdaverticals com>]

the A02390 number is different for each time the sync is attempted, I
assume it is some kind of serial number or something that evo creates
when it makes a request to the IMAP server.  The error comes from
evolution sending set flags to the IMAP server with no flags -
apparently a no-no according to the rfc.
