The only way this might be Dovecot's fault is if STATUS commands don't
see the new mail. For example:
a STATUS mailboxname (MESSAGES UNSEEN)
If running that command sees updated values, the problem is with
Thunderbird which probably doesn't even try to send that command then.
I don't really know if TB normally does that or not, most other
clients do anyway.
