ok just a suggestion
Dovecot supports idle to inform clients of message updates
this works well with most clients
however
microsoft outlook & other microsoft email clients do not seem to support
idle and have not since outlook2010
Microsoft want everyone using outlook / exchange 365 ??
I have not tried windows mail (sorry no need for using that)
I do however find that thunderbird on windows is the best client out there.
If you need to use microsoft email clients then you will need to set the
fetch email intervals to like 5 minutes or whatever is good for you,
most microsoft is set for 30 minute sync's
also note this is also an issue with iphone as email servers need to
send push notifications to the apple in order to notify the end user of
a new/changed email box. this has been the case since ios 10. again you
need to set fetch intervals for stuff to be updated.
fyi
Happy Wednesday !!!

The issue seems to be with the clients (an update maybe?), not the server.
do you have console/root access to dovecot and files?

I’m having synchronization issues in imap. I am accessing my mail from
several different imap clients: K9 on Android, Windows 11 and 10 mail
client, and Android Gmail app. Both desktop and laptop, tablet,
phone. I know I have more than the usual number of imap connections...
Often when I delete a message in one place, it doesn’t get deleted in
another. For example, if I delete a message on K9 then open my
laptop, it’s still there in W11 Mail. But just now, I deleted some
messages on my laptop and swiped down on K9 and the message
disappeared on K9. But K9 shows other messages which have been
deleted in Windows 11 Mail. I’ve not yet been able to figure out a
pattern. It’s annoying me. I have to delete messages in several
different places. Messages not coming back, they’re just not being
deleted in one place and that delete operation is not syncing to the
others.
Messages seem to be being marked as read properly across devices.
This seems to be an issue with delete only, so far as I’ve noticed.
I’ve long been using multiple imap clients, this syncing issue started
maybe 6 to 8 months ago.
Is there a good way to get debugging info out of dovecot as to what
the clients are doing?
Or does anyone have any advise which might help resolve this without
resorting to me digging into the imap protocol?
