Steinar,
I've investigated and reported this bug before. "Holey" mailboxes
like you describe will trigger it.
The root cause seems that when UID SEARCH UID fails, nnimap ends
up deleting/expiring all articles involed in this UID SEARCH UID
command. UID SEARCH UID seems to fail on large lists of
sequences. In Exchange case "large" is pretty small :-), but I've
seen similar problems on very large "holey" mailboxes on uw-imapd.
See

for full description/trace/etc.
