Having looked at this again, I think I have a hypothesis:

1. Outlook is ignoring the date/timestamps on the files in my Maildirs

Outlook should use IMAP's INTERNALDATE, which are taken from >maildir files' mtime timestamps. If these timestamps are correct but they're not showing correctly in Outlook, I'd guess Outlook is caching them internally. One way to fix this would be to change UIDVALIDITY to force a coplete resync. You can do this by modifying the second number in dovecot-uidlist file.

tried this without any luck (& it made Outlook crash the first time it ran after the change). However, deleting the 192.168.xx.xxxxxx.pst file in c:\windows\application manager\microsoft\outlook did work, so my problem is now resolved.

Thanks, James.
