Inhttp://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-August/041950.html Timo says that IMAP NOTIFY is not yet supported by Dovecot - has this changed? If not, is there a plan to implement IMAP NOTIFY?
Keep in mind it still need at least one connection per mailbox if I correctly understood RFC.
I don't think so - in chapter 1 (Overview and Rationale) it states "Also, IDLE only applies to the selected mailbox, thus requiring an additional TCP connection per mailbox"
... and later, in chapter 3.1:
"The client can also request notifications on other mailboxes by name or by a limited mailbox pattern match. Message-related notifications returned for the currently selected mailbox will be those specified by the SELECTED/SELECTED-DELAYED mailbox specifier, even if the selected mailbox also appears by name (or matches a pattern) in the command."
I cannot find any indication that multiple IMAP connections are required.
Also I don't know any client supporting IMAP NOTIFY yet.
Well, this is probably a chicken/egg problem ;) One of the core developers of K-9 Mail says: "I've been interested in implementing IMAP NOTIFY in K-9 Mail, but will only do it once dovecot supports it." (http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/issues/detail?id=1255#c8)
