[imp] New mail notification in INBOX

[Jukka Laaksola]

Hi!

We have imp-h3-4.1.3 and the new mail notification popup is working
correctly at folder's view (the folders.php). The popup is not working
at the mailbox view (the mailbox.php). We have set the no_newmail_popup
parameter to 0 everywhere and debugged the situation.

The debug showed up that imap_search at Mailbox.php line 388 never found
RECENT messages. We use uw-imapd version 7:2002edebian1-11sarge1.

Below is a part of IMAP protocol capture between IMP and imap server
when updating the mailbox view (INBOX). It shows that uw-imapd server
counts one RECENT message for "SELECT INBOX" but none RECENT for next
"EXAMINE INBOX" command. We believe this is the reason why IMP's
imap_search at Mailbox.php line 388 returns zero.

Can anyone help us to get new mail popup to work with mailbox view also?
And is this a bug of IMP or uw-imapd? The RECENT flags is there once but
IMP does not get the number of RECENT messages.
