Hi,
So I'm running dovecot 1.2.17 on Mac OSX using maildir in ~/Mail. After using getmail for a while to download my POP3 email and store it in the right place it started not working so I replaced it with a python script that I wrote. All was good for a while and then I stopped getting new mail notifications in my IMAP client. If I close the connection and restart the new mail shows up as !seen but no amount of re-selecting the folder will show the new mail while the connection is active. There is no untagged responses about new mail while the client is IDLEing. The client is InScribe (http://memecode.com/inscribe.php http://memecode.com/inscribe.php) but I doubt it's client specific. Seems to be server related.
Now the python script in question just puts the .eml file in ~/Mail/tmp and then renames it to the ~/Mail/new folder. Does it need to do something else as well to make the notifications work?
There aren't any error messages in the log. Just normal login history.
If you can point me in the right direction that'd be appreciated.

You might want to consider upgrading, your version is rather old.
