Subject: [PATCH] Fix imap message size parsing
Date: Wed, 01 Jul 2015 19:45:05 -0700
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: gnus
Tags: patch

IMAP servers may sent the data items in a FETCH response in arbitrary
order. However, currently Gnus assumes that the UID item is sent before
the RFC822.SIZE item. If this assumption is wrong, Gnus is unable to
determine the message size.

The attached patch fixes this issue.

Best,
-Nikolaus
