I do recall occasionally hearing about that, but I think it was years ago.  
One of the annoying things about Python's imaplib.py, unfortunately.

I don't know what to suggest except running it under -1 -d imap -u TTY.TTYUI 
and send me the parts of the log that deal with those messages.

Have you determined what messages on the server they correspond to, and if 
those messages even exist?  The U= is the UID.
