It seems like Dovecot doesn't check other folders than the main maildir by dnotify, may that be possible?
is this common behaviour?

I got a procmail rule that moves mail from some senders to another folder, e.g.
.archive.facebook/ . This works fine, the message appear in
.archive.facebook/new if i "ls" that directory by shell. But dovecot.index files don't get updated, hence IDLE doesn't tell the client new mail arrived. this
only happens if i click on the folder in thunderbird. like this, not even
clicking on Thunderbird "Check mail" button shows me new Mail arrived.

Is this a common error in this version? would there any benefit if i self
compiled a newer version regarding this issue?

Thanx
