Isn't this "mailbox_idle_check_interval"?
# Like mailbox_check_interval, but used for IDLE command. #mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30
It might be better to use "imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle" instead. This pretends a new message has arrived just before the timeout then says it was deleted. Your client is very broken if that doesn't wake it up!
Best Wishes, Chris

Is it possible to change the IDLE command timeout to be more than 30 minutes? I have a client on my PalmOne Treo 600 which will stay in IDLE mode as long as it can. I would like to set the timeout to something much higher than 30 minutes. Maybe several hours or even more.
I don't see a configuration setting for this value in "/etc/dovecot.conf". Am I missing something?
Thanks, -Sim
