Right. If I'm to guess, this is because a full sync works, but QRESYNC
doesn't.
As for why QRESYNC doesn't work, I don't know. It could be because the
server in question doesn't support it, or it could be something wrong
with the request or the response (it can be something as little as a SPC
too many or to little, as a different IMAP server proved).
Anyway, a workaround here could be to fall back to making `g' do full
sync of nnimap groups to find new messages. But I don't know if this is
possible to do with the new nnimap...?
Of course, full sync is slooo-oo-o-w, which is why the new nnimap
uses, or tries to use, QRESYNC...
