Protect IMAP.getmessage() against dropped connections

Browse Source 
If a connection is dropped for some reason while fetching a message, the
imapobj.uid command throws an imapbj.abort() Exception which means we are
supposed to retry. Implement a fail loop that drops the connection, gets a
new one and attempts the command another time.

Remove obsolete comment that we need to catch nonexisting messages. We do
now.

GMail seems to drop connections left and right. This patch is a response to
the reported mail "4E5F8D8C.1020005@gmail.com" by zeek
<ezekiel.das@gmail.com>.
