Gmail library can support no more than 19 new mails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

gmail watches don't have @gmail.com automatically added like svn trunk,
please clone trunk's code :)

I also frequently experience such errors with that test watch, I think this 
issue
must be linked:

I tried to fix this problem and i came across something strange...
If you have more than 19 unread mails, the information from mail 20,21,...will 
not be
available.
We need this information to check if an email is new or just unread.

I tried the same with the windows version of "Gmail notifier" and it also 
crashes
(doesn't show any message) if i have more than 19 unread mails.

Maybe we need to find an other library or find an other way to have a unique
identifier for gmail mails.

just add some comment in the code to document the fact that it's a hack around 
the
gmail limitation of metadata retrieval (does not affect message count), then 
this can
be marked Verified :) it does not crash on my side anymore.
