I have the X-UIDL head in the message.

I have pop3_reuse_xuidl(pop3): yes

That should do it.

The INBOX is an mbx file not Maildir.

You mean mbox. mbx is a different format.

Should this work? Have I missed something?

It should work, and it works in my test:

printf 'From user@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..
