I know this is not a new bug but the log is much more funny :)

What is new is the situation, after scanning mailbox instead of while
downloading a message. The number of times seems to be near in all cases to
the number of messages stored so may be caused by a reset after the client
sends the UIDL command :? What surprised me was that I did not notice those
errors and only saw those that happened while getting a message.
