I'm using gmail, and this is actually documented in folders/Gmail.py,
where there is a comment in cachemessagelist() that the messagestr
"looks like: '1 (FLAGS (\\Seen Old) X-GM-LABELS (\\Inbox \\Favorites)
UID 4807)' or None if no msg". That's if synclabels = True. Otherwise,
as I said, it looks like 'UID 45437 FLAGS ()'. Is there other
information you wanted?

Given that, I'm confused by this
    rtime = imaplibutil.Internaldate2epoch(messagestr)
in that function: Internaldate2epoch() tries to parse the messagestr
for things that look like dates.

I think this whole business about rtime is a distraction from the
original problem I brought up, namely

and the fact that filenames are set using

    def new_message_filename(self, uid, flags=set()):    ...

which doesn't have anything to do with rtime. That's why I proposed
changing this function to take rtime into account too.
