UID changes every few seconds
Hi,
From a client based on Roundcube Framework I'm fetching message list from "virtual/INBOX" folder and that works fine to some degree, but the problem is that every few seconds or so (probably when new message is delivered or bounced on the mail server) UID of those messages changes.

2.1.7 is an antique Try it with current set 2.2.15.. I'd try it for you but I'm in Australia for a few weeks and have no backend access to our network from here.
