Fetchmail is buggy and ignores EXISTS events if they arrive during non-IDLE commands.
Out of curiosity, has this been reported to the Fetchmail developer(s)?
I haven't reported this to the fetchmail developers, but I will now that I've confirmed it's their bug.
For those interested, I've raised this on the fetchmail list here:
