Question about how to serve many imap users on some mailbox.
Hi, dear dovecot users!
I am running 2.2.29.1 (e0b76e3) on FreeBSD.
In my case, one mailbox info@example.com is shared between 5-10 managers.
Sometimes they complains that no new messages displayed in folder message count list in brackets (bold number if new messages exists), but when they click on the imap folder (for example Inbox) they could see many new mails. There not only Inbox folder, they have 10-30 folders with quite big flow of new messages. Almost all users are using Microsoft Outlook MUA.
Please, help me to solve the issue.

AFAIK Outlook doesn't automatically sync subfolders. I think you need to edit the schedule and enable sync for every subfolder explicitly.
