[Dovecot] dovecot-1.0-test8 / nfs / maildir / flags issues

[Reuben Farrelly]

In this case the version of PHP-imap might not be so relevant...my 
Horde/IMP (-cvs) has also broken in the latest test releases but works fine 
with the older (semi) stable 0.99 releases.  All my mail folders appear 
empty when displayed with IMP although the folder list is fine (and even 
the message count in each folder is correct).

I suspect the command which is not working is:

00000004 UID SORT (ARRIVAL) US-ASCII ALL

The very bottom paragraph at http://www.dovecot.org/bugreport.html gives 
some clues as to how to go about debugging this sort of problem, and would 
probably be handy in this case too :)
