Because I want it all to be asynchronous, opportunistic and streaming.
When exiting a group, we'll be squirting off an APPEND command to the
IMAP server (with the current delta), but we don't wait for it to
return finish. We queue them up, and if we get three group exits before
the first APPEND has finished, we just skip the second one.
Conversely, using IDLE on the mail box will keep the other instances
updated asynchronously without anybody having to issue any commands.
It'll be like using the IMAP synchronisation methodology, only for all
backends and stuff.

I don't think having CouchDB as a prerequisite is totally reasonable.
It should just work without having to install anything.
