Two questions: #1 is it possible to get only the field "msgnum", and that raw (I would like to have a file with one number on each line, nothing else). I know I can "solve" this with some postprocessor script, but if its doable directly via the API, I'd prefer that (less moving parts). #2 The response says (as I interpret it), there are 100 results (which is what I pushed), but I only see a small subset. Is that already the paging problem?
