Exactly - so if you set the time on your computer, do you agree that conditions may be broken? I guess everyone's experienced the screensaver suddenly popping up, or anacron / cron going haywire. CVS doesn't detect changes to your depository and "make" doesn't build correctly anymore. So when we discuss RENAME, we can't start with "what-ifs" that don't apply exclusively to IMAP.
