I've now re-applied the patch and debugged a bit.  It was basically
nnimap-delete-article having some code paths that can't have been
exercised.  The function had an optional SYNC parameter, but
nnimap-command was called (which is not asynchronous and does not return
any sequence numbers), and then these non-sequences were being waited
for.

I've now pushed the patch to the trunk, I've used it and send and
received some messages, and things seem to work fine.
