The problem is we would like to migrate our system from uw-imap to popa3d,
but unless it ignores/deletes the imap message, we cannot migrate. That's
the show stopper preventing us from using popa3d.
There does not seem to be straightforward way to remove the imap message
from all 10,000+ user mailboxes on the system (and i think, uw-imap isn't
the only thing that writes these too... some mua's like pine write it..?)
How much complexity would it add to popa3d?
