Details

While testing bug 104631, I noticed the following. It's possible to make mozilla
repeatedly duplicate a message. This was done on an IMAP account.
Create a filter -> "If subject contains testing1 move to INBOX"
Send a message to this account with subject "testing1" and watch the message
replicate.

(If you're wondering why you would want to move to INBOX, is because this can be
reproduced by moving from one IMAP account to another)
I don't see any duplication or replication, the message is not replicated if
it is the same server and it is moved to Inbox on different server.
