Is there a race condition in IMAP's idle-search-idle?

Vote count:

I have a bunch of code that does IMAP commands “search, idle, done, search, idle, done, search, ...”.

Is it possible that some messages arrive between search and idle commands and, thus, will only be received by that code after the idle return / timeout?
