i put a new version of imap4d up on sources that should
eliminate uid sequence error messages with outlook.
(and the oh-so-helpful dialog boxes that go with them.)
thunderbird and apple mail don't seem to care about this
problem.

for those who care, the problem is ...
each imap message is identified by an ephemerial sequence
number and a perminant uid.  imap4 takes the nonsensical
position that while result sets may be returned in any order,
uid_a < uid_b <=> seq_a < seq_b; being able to return
things in any order is no help at all if you have to sort the
messages to sequence them anyway.

so that's what i did.  but at least i didn't like it.
