Due to incorrect locking in camel_imap_folder_fetch_data in camel-imap-folder.c, tny_folder_get_msg_async on a TnyCamelImapFolder? instance can (and will) cause connection problems (it'll loose track, as two threads will have started reading out the buffer simultaneously).
A review of the locking in combination with a second-thread for getting messages should fix this.
You can debug-test this problem by clicking around in the demo user interface. If you manage to click faster than that you are receiving the messages, you'll trigger this bug (because a new tny_folder_get_msg_async will happen).
Same goes for tny_folder_get_msg by the way.

- status changed from new to closed.
- resolution set to fixed.
Should be fixed, as get_msg on the IMAP code now always starts a new thread and a new connection.
