Since this is coming up, I would like this "daemon mode" to use IDLE to
subscribe to the Inbox mailboxes, and run the equivalent of `mbsync
ACCOUNT` when new messages come up.
Instead of repeating the fetch on a loop.

The performance improvements here would be to reuse the server
connection, I'm almost sure that dominates the sync process when there
are no changes.

Parallel account fetching would also be a possibility, but that can
be hacked around with a shell script.
Each account must be fetched serially, but in between accounts, they can
be fetched in parallel.
