And found two more users with this issue, but while looking at it, I  
see another related issue, but it's not throwing an error.

all email in the INBOX/new and /cur are correct

but in .Trash/cur since I upgraded from 2.0.19 to 2.1 they have double  
S and W tags.

1331941500.M220929P17982.5013,S=24845,W=25526,S=24845,W=25526:2,Sa

This is happening for all folder moves.

the Sent folder isn't affected, but I assume cause an email wasn't  
moved in that case.
