So removed the ! since pretty much uneeded but get the same behaviour ... send a mail to the underlying inbox .. gets found in virtual/combined but not virtual/all .... remove the indexes from virtual/all and re-login .. they get recreated and bingo the new message is now found (shown below) ...
even tried running a doveadm index on virtual/all ... but that didnt do anything either ....

Matt Bryant mailto:matt@the-bryants.net 19 February 2018 at 7:24 am So virtual/combined was meant to combine INBOX/Sent/Drafts and virtual/all display them in a threaded manner .. at least that was the intention ...

Uhm.
combined folder seems to use INBOX for saving mails and contains mails from Sent and Drafts.
Not sure what your all folder is supposed to do.

I have defined 2 virtual mailboxes 'all' and 'combined' as follows ...
virtual/all/dovecot-virtual
virtual/combined inthread refs x-mailbox INBOX
virtual/combined/dovecot-virtual
!INBOX INBOX/Sent INBOX/Drafts all
