i set:

mailbox_check_interval = 0

This has been the default since 0.99.5 which was released over 2 years ago. How old version are you using? :) Or had you changed the default?

i had indeed changed the default, thinking that it would be a nice feature to turn on. when the problem first surfaced, i immediately thought of this option. however, since the problem was that applemail wasn't seing the new mail, and this was an option to notify the client that there *was* new mail, i guess common sense got the better of me and i forgot this was something i had changed...

...

mailbox_idle_check_interval = 0

This shouldn't matter because OSX Mail doesn't use IDLE. Probably better idea to turn it back on or clients using IDLE don't see new mails (I think?)

aha. well then i'll have to try turning that back on :)

thanks, sean
