-for IMAP retrievers, keep message state around for 30 days even if the corresponding message isn't seen. This allows users to have multiple rc files with different IMAP folders to retrieve from without losing their "seen" mail state for the folders they're not currently retrieving from. You no longer need to work around this with different getmail state directories. Thanks: ?.
