I haven't learned how to use git, but there you go:

magic [mc]$ diff -u IMAP.py.orig IMAP.py
--- IMAP.py.orig        2009-05-29 14:09:43.807823000 -0700

             # Now, get the flags and UIDs for these.
             # We could conceivably get rid of maxmsgid and just say

-            response = imapobj.fetch('1:%d' % maxmsgid, '(FLAGS UID 
INTERNALDATE)')[1]
+            response = imapobj.fetch('1:%d' % maxmsgid, '(FLAGS UID)')[1]
         finally:
             self.imapserver.releaseconnection(imapobj)
         for messagestr in response:
magic [mc]$  

Indeed, it looks like it works fine without it.
