According to specs each Collection in the Sync response should include a 
SyncKey element. If you store value of the SyncKey element in an Akonadi's 
Collection attribute (or you can use Akonadi::Collection::remoteRevision - 
that what's the property is for actually), on next sync you then pass the 
stored SyncKey to the server and you should be given only new messages in 
response + a new value of the SyncKey to store in the Collection. This is 
similar to what we do in the Google Calendar resource for example.

Cheers,
Dan
