The golang-github-emersion-go-imap-idle package ships upstream code from
2020 and appears unmaintained. It has no reverse dependencies in
Debian.
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/golang-github-emersion-go-imap-idle
The upstream project was archived in 2021:
This extension has been merged into go-imap. Use built-in support
instead of this repository!

This removal request is part of a larger batch to remove 100+ unused
golang-*-dev packages from Debian. I believe the QA cost associated
with keeping all of them is larger than the cost of (hopefully extremely
rare) re-introduction of any accidentally removed package if there is
ever any future need for it. Meanwhile, I don't think it is useful to
keep this package in Debian.
