Hi,


Issue: 
Sieve works perfectly and does deliver the mail to the correct
mail directories. However Thunderbird doesn't detect the new email,
until the user clicks on the folder and then all of a sudden it shows
the newly detected emails. Perhaps this is a task for the Thunderbird
forums? (Thunderbird 24.2.0)


Server Side:
* CentOS release 6.3 (Final)
* dovecot-2.0.9-7.el6.x86_64
* dovecot-pigeonhole-2.0.9-7.el6.x86_64
* postfix-2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64

* Server Sieve Settings:
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir
plugin {
sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_dir = ~/sieve
sieve_vacation_default_period = 10d
sieve_vacation_max_period = 30d
sieve_vacation_min_period = 1h
}


* Client App:
- Thunderbird 24.2.0

* Userlevel config;
File: ~/.dovecot.sieve
require "fileinto";
if address :is "to" "sysadmin at example.com"
{
fileinto "sysadmin";
}
elsif address :is "to" "root@"
{
fileinto "sysadmin";
}
elsif address :is "from" "root@"
{
fileinto "sysadmin";
}
