[issue13254] maildir.items() broken

[Petri Lehtinen]

Petri Lehtinen <petri at digip.org> added the comment:

More specifically, this happens if the Maildir instance is created two seconds before items() is called:

>>> import time
>>> from mailbox import Maildir
>>> x = Maildir('test')  # has messages
>>> time.sleep(2.5)
>>> x.items()
[]

This happens because __init__() doesn't populate _toc, and mtimes haven't changed either, so _refresh() doesn't populate _toc either.
