neither IDLE, SORT, THREAD or SASL extension of IMAP are implemented in 
libetpan. I consider IDLE and SASL more interesting than the two others.

If you use the driver interface, you will find mail_build_thread()
and mail_thread_sort() to thread and sort messages. The work will be 
done locally on the computer. (mailthread.h)

That means that you have to use driver interface to use them or you 
could construct fake mailmessage object to build the initial needed 
mailmessage_list or mailmessage_tree.
