Re: Mailboxes messed up after migration

IMAP provides two kinds of timestamp: the time the message was placed into
the mailbox, and the time in the Date header line. In a typical inbox and
sent mailbox the two are the same order. In other folders it might not be
the same. I think Roundcube uses the first kind of timestamp, which for
cyrus is not a sort at all since it is the internal order of messages in a
mailbox.

I guess the question is whether the migration moved messages out of order,
or whether the users are noticing something that was true before migration.
