Looks like no headers at all where returned from the server.
I changed the IMAP command for fetching headers which now sends UID FETCH together with the message UID. Before, it was just FETCH with the sequence number. I tried it with several servers and all seemed to support this command (it's IMAPv4). One reason for this change were problems with DBMail which returned false answers when trying to resolve the UID to a sequence number. Now BincIMAP doesn't work... I really hate those little differences!
The only way to solve this would be to specify the IMAP server in config or to retry the FETCH command if it failed.
I'd be fine with setting a bincimap_ugly_hacks=TRUE in the config, or setting a server variable (Squirrelmail does this) - or would it be possible to autodetect when connecting? Both BincIMAP and Courier identify themselves upon connecting:

I'm also fine with dropping support for BincIMAP if it means I can tell my boss that that shiny new webmail system he loves so much demands that we modernize or supplement our mail authentication :)
