[Dovecot] mbox to Maildir conversion

I've been running a mbox solution using UW's IMAP server. I've run it for years.

Now do to heavy message volumes, I've decided to to take the plunge to convert to the Maildir format.

I am currently testing a single user, and have successfully converted the mail messages from mbox to Maildir format, and now I am setting up the procmail tool to place the messages into the correct folder. I have been following the http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/MailFormat formula, but now have a question.

New Messages are now being placed into the ~user/Maildir/new folder. However, when I attempt to retrieve those messages, Dovecot does not find them. Why not?
