Outlook-idle applies to the imap protocol, and is added to the "protocol 
imap {}", like this:
imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle

I doubt that this is your problem.

Is your problem perhaps that you're using the imap protocol for your 
iPhone, and pop3 with Outlook? I'm not sure if dovecot can handle that. 
Why not use imap with Outlook?
