I'm trying to add a code in dovecot that will notify my services when a message is updated/added/moved/copied. I checked dovecot code a bit and mail-storage.c seems to be a nice place for tracking but I'm not sure if I can track all changes there.

There are no update/move commands in IMAP, so you'll just need to hook into saving and copying. Normally copying also goes through save unless you're using maildir + maildir_copy_with_hardlinks=yes.

See quota plugin for example how to hook into saving and copying: http://dovecot.org/patches/1.0/quota.tar.gz

Probably better to do it as a plugin than directly modify the sources, so you don't have to keep patching it for each new release.
