What, you're using maildir after all? Then you should remove this setting:
mail_privileged_group = mail
Is there anything I need to do about the mbox/UIDL issue? Config variables to tweak?
If you're using Maildir, there's almost no chance of UIDLs changing. You could of course manually log in and check:
telnet localhost 110 user foo pass bar uidl
Save the output -> look at it again after user redownloaded mails -> compare the output to see if it had changed (besides the intentional message deletions and new messages).
Yes, I'm using Maildir, sorry. I've removed that mail_privileged_group setting (I think I had it set when I was testing some migration FROM mbox).
The UIDL seems to be staying the same, so maybe the answer is having them delete/recreate their Outlook POP accounts?
