Subject: get_summaries with array ref broken
According to the documentation accepts get_summaries an array ref as the first parameter. This doesn't work, I get this when I watch with Wireshark: IMAP Request: NIC4 UID FETCH ARRAY(0x1a2a1e0) (UID FLAGS INTERNALDATE RFC822.SIZE ENVELOPE BODYSTRUCTURE BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS (Message-Id)]) I copy & pasted the example from the summary, just replaced @msg_ids with @messages.

I'm sorry, get_summaries isn't broken. The Synopsis is wrong/misleading though. It says: # fetch all message ids my @messages = $imap->search('ALL'); But search() returns an array ref. So what you get here is an array @messages with a single element which is an array ref. I later passed a ref to @messages to get_summaries (as suggested by the Synopsis) and got the results I got. So this is a documentation bug instead.
