The problem is the negative UID, I think dummy lines are assigned
negative article numbers. However, are backends really expected to
handle negative article numbers? It appears as if there is a bug in
Gnus in that it doesn't remove the negative article number before
invoking the backend. If not, nnimap should probably just discard
negative article numbers.
