UIDVALIDITY — UIDVALIDITY

UIDs validity for mailbox

Riposte solution

UIDVALIDITY is a unique identifier for the mailbox, used to tell if UIDs are stable. This response is informational. Riposte will manage mailbox consistency using this value. If UIDVALIDITY changes (mailbox recreated), Riposte would know to refresh state. No direct fix needed from your side.
