Ok. So I verified I have SORT in my CAPABILITIES:
1 OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE  
IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND  
UNSELECT IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1  
CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH  
LIST-STATUS COMPRESS=DEFLATE QUOTA] Logged in

SORT and THREAD are only shown after login.  Is that why IMP didn't  
see it?  (dovecot 2.0.7)
