Remarks

This class implements MessageIndexCollection as a collection of Int64 values.

Note Note
In MailBee, UID is represented as a Int64 value. Actually, UID is a 32-bit unsigned value. Due to this, it's possible to get UID value which won't fit in the range of values allowed for Int32 type (which is 32-bit signed). Although .NET framework supports UInt32 type (32-bit unsigned), not all .NET languages support this type (i.e. it's not CLS-compliant). Also, with UInt32 it's not possible to represent negative values which are used by MailBee to represent invalid data (such as when certain value cannot be parsed).
