Maybe the solution could also cover the issue reported by someone else that there may be mail with illegal addressing scheme such as missing '<' and '>' or <"user name" [EMAIL PROTECTED]> (misplaced brackets). Both cases occuredmultiple times and needed manual intervention. I would see it as important that the synced account be emptied.
