Problem:
Summary: ambiguous wording in docs for CFIMAP
[quote centaurbeta2_cfmlref.pdf, p319]
MessageNumber
Optional
Specifies the message number or a comma delimited list of message numbers for retrieval, deletion, marking mail as read, or moving mails.
If you set an invalid message number or range, then it is ignored.

The issue is the last sentence. When it says "it is ignored", the "it" does not refer to "messagenumber" as one would interpret from the sentence, it actually means "the IMAP operation". IE: if one asks <cfimap> to delete messagenumber 42, and there is no message 42, then nothing is deleted, and no exception is raised. It does NOT mean that the messagenumber argument is ignored, which would result in all messages in the folder being deleted!
So that needs a bit of a rewording.
