Thanks for your tip. I tried putting in "set resolve=no". My
impression is that the success rate is quite a bit higher now, but
still not 100 percent. Maybe 50 percent or slightly more (but this is
just my impression).

Note that it either works completely, clearing the "new" flag (if any)
_and_
saving the message _and_ syncing the mailbox, or not at all.

Any more ideas very welcome! :)
