That would be great.  I googled about it, and there was one very similar
message, but it didn't really hold any useful information.  It does
suggest that something is special about this flag.

My biggest mistake when originally writing imapfilter was to base it on
another imap filter and fix things that didn't work, instead of going
from the RFC in the first place.  That said, the RFC is a pain to work
through, and hopefully can be mostly used as a reference now.

If you don't want to read the RFC, you can always run the idea behind
the patch past -dev first, where hopefully someone will point out any
potential problem :)

Done :)
