I added two or three more incoming folders today, since the ones 
from yesterday are working fine. (I hadn't made archiving 
foldedrs for them yet.) Suddenly, the tab at the bottom of my 
INBOX gave me this :

[Message 407 UID 3488 greater than last 3487]

I have no idea what it's talking about. I removed one new folder, 
and things seemed to work, for a while. Now I get another such 
message, with different numbers. But this time, that doesn't stop 
it.

I now have five incoming folders, all of them being archived -- 
plus the INBOX.

The first time the archiving function put a bunch of messages 
into an archiving folder, they were all at the bottom, making the 
sequence odd. I changed it from arrival to date. (Just in one 
folder) Maybe that's the UID problem??
