I was able to login in via telnet like the tutorial said. In my Maildir/new I had 884 new messages. The tutorial said to access the Inbox, and I did and could. However, then my 884 messages were gone!!! I do not understand what the heck happened. Did I just loose all my messages? Of course you created a backup before you tried a new IMAP server on your important e-mails. :) I don't think your messages are gone. What about using a mail client like Thunderbird to look into your mailbox instead of telnet? If they're still gone (and also on the file system level), I'd suggest looking at the logfile of dovecot to figure out why.
