That's worth noting, but...

What about getting notices out to those folks whose IMAP client stays connected (sometimes for days on end)?

In a plugin, what would trigger a check for new messages? I haven't explored the plugin capabilities yet, so I don't know what the potential is. I fear checking after every imap command may be a worse problem than some users not getting the messages. That does make me wonder if dovecot processes should have a maximum life setting though...

Also, is there a document for the plugin API somewhere? As in how to write your own... I haven't found such a thing in the wiki, just the existing plugins themselves.
