This patch works for me, it also avoids the delay seen on a different
install which produces EXISTS and RECENT messages:
  * n EXISTS\r\n

  * n RECENT\r\n
  <tag> OK [APPENDUID m n] Append completed.\r\n

Here EXISTS was sent in a separate packet, waiting for ACK then finally
sending RECENT and end tag in a second packet.
