That should do it.

You mean mbox. mbx is a different format.

It should work, and it works in my test:

printf 'From user at domain  Wed Apr 22 13:48:08 2009\nX-UIDL: hello\n' > ~/mail/inbox

telnet localhost pop3
..
uidl
+OK
1 hello
.

One possibility could be that dovecot.index.cache has cached wrong UIDL.
You could try deleting ~/mail/.imap/ directory. If that doesn't help,
the only thing I can think of is that there really isn't a X-UIDL header
or the setting really isn't somehow enabled..
