If we can find another way to comply with the RFC besides automatic

Is it such that all messages gets a unique incrementing id system-wide
or account-wide?
Maybe we could make the imap daemon assign ids to all new messages in
the database upon request. The only problem with that would be if there
were two simultanious imap requests to the same account.
That would let the account get incrementing ids starting from 1 on each
account, not starting on 1 system-wide.
This is the only feasibly way I can think of.
We also have to take into account that with shared or public mailboxes
we don't want any collisions in message IDs. Because there's no way to
know in advance which mailboxes will be shared, we would have to go with
system-wide IDs.
