It works as read-only. Expunge will crash. I haven't dared to try 
rewriting yet, probably corrupts everything :) Maybe I'll now finally 
optimize the rewriting and expunging into same thing rather than spend 
time debugging and kludging around problems.

CVS code also finally hides mbox headers which contain message flags 
etc. Those caused message to change constantly which isn't allowed by 
IMAP.
