[Dovecot] why wont /usr/pkg/libexec/dovecot/imap see my Maildir

When I invoke /usr/pkg/libexec/dovecot/imap from the command loine on the mail host, it logs me in, but won't see my emails:

13:22 yeled@lazy:~$ /usr/pkg/libexec/dovecot/imap

• PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SORT THREAD=REFERENCES MULTIAPPEND
• UNSELECT LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN LISTEXT LIST-SUBSCRIBED] Logged in
• as yeled 0 select inbox
• FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft)
• OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft \*)]
• Flags permitted.
• 0 EXISTS
• 0 RECENT
• OK [UIDVALIDITY 1059959635] UIDs valid
• OK [UIDNEXT 1] Predicted next UID 0 OK [READ-WRITE] Select completed.

I know I have many emails in there, and I can see them when I login via telnet localhost 443.

Any tips? would be nice to use fetchmail with ssh here.
