Hi, I just recently installed dovecot, and I am having the following problem: If I send an email to my account on this new machine, I can log in via SSH and use the unix mail command, and instantly my email is visible.
If I turn on Thunderbird, it will show my new message. If Thunderbird was already on and had already checked the mailbox, even if I click on get new mail for that specific mailbox, the new mail does not show up until I restart thunderbird. Is there something that I have set wrong in the config files that is preventing the IMAP part of dovecot from refreshing the messages quickly for me to see? I dont see anything in the log files at all except for it showing me logging in. Thanks, Ben
I am using pretty much the same setup - Dovecot (0.99.14), Postfix and Thunderbird. I vaguely remember something like this, but I don't recall the fix. What happens when you click on another folder, and back to the folder with the new mail? Does it show then?
