03488ba81b Sync INTERNALDATE <-> mtime
The attached patch adds syncing the INTERNALDATE of IMAP folders with
the mtime of messages in maildir folders.
I want this to happen, because I'm running a dovecot over the maildirs
synced by offlineimap, and that uses the mtime as the INTERNALDATE.
When using mutt to view messages I generally sort based on the received
date, which for IMAP folders is the INTERNALDATE.

Since this is the first real coding I've done in Python the patch may
need to be cleaned up some, but it's working pretty well for me.  I've
added new messages to each side, and the received date has been
preserved going both ways.

0841e03a4c [319117] Unroll loop to speed performance on large folders
From: "Nikita V. Youshchenko"
I trued to use offlineimap and found that while being quite fast on
small folders, it takes up to several minutes (of 100% busy CPU and
almost no network traffic) to sync a folder with 2000+ messages.

While looking into the code, I found why this happens.
In folder/Base.py, in method BaseFolder.syncmessagesto_copy(),
dest.getmessagelist() is called inside a loop, while being a loop
invariant. Similar thing happens in BaseFolder.syncmessagesto_delete()
for self.getmessagelist().
This causes quadratic complexity over folder size.

Moving these calls out of loops make large folder sync fast (several
seconds instead of several minutes for folder with 2000 messages on
700MHz P3).
