I now tested IDLE on Courier, Cyrus and Isode's M-Box successfully. Dovecot, however, didn't work.

Note that on Courier it takes a while before the IDLE is issued by the IMAP server.
Exchange is instantly, Cyrus is instantly if idled is running (on imap2.tinymail.org it is running), Dovecot seems to issue its EXISTS instantly (but after that something seems to be defect in or tinymail or Dovecot), Isode's M-Box is also instantly.

Note that for Exchange you need to get the CAPABILITY "AFTER" the authentication. It seems that Exchange is hiding its real capabilities until after the authentication is completed for security reasons.
So first authenticating, then getting the capabilities. This has been fixed in Camel-lite.

- summary changed from IDLE on Dovecot doesn't work, it seems to IDLE testing tracking bug.
New tests with a Maildir in stead of the default "mail" format of Dovecot caused the IDLE to suddenly start working.

- status changed from new to closed.
- resolution set to fixed.
On Exchange's IMAP a UID FETCH right after the IDLE request + the DONE sometimes seems to give strange results, but it does usually work.
