	Then maybe it's time to have some versioning of the cache format, so
that Tinymail can detect when a cache is not compatible and regenerate
it properly.

	Of course this works in two ways. You have to detect when the client is
new and the cache is old, but also when the cache is new, and the client
is old (for example, using different tinymail versions over the same
user account, as nfs deployments usually allow to happen).
