If someone does a STATUS on a mailbox that the IMAP server has not seen
before - what is expected output for UIDNEXT and UIDVALIDITY? Since the 
STATUS command can not change the mailbox in any way - I assume it's not 
allowed to index the messages either.

Is it far off to say that UIDNEXT == # of messages + 1, or UIDVALIDITY = 1
(obviously this is weird for servers that use time(NULL))?

What practical use does a client have for checking UIDNEXT status?
