Re: [Imap-protocol] Gmail and IDLE flags changes

As of yesterday, Gmail now supports reporting flags changes anywhere we
would report new/expunged messages (ie, most places its allowed by the
protocol, but definitely during IDLE).

Its only enabled for gmail.com users at the moment, Google Apps users will
follow in a week or so, assuming we don't find any issues.
