Verifying the absence ob an issue in a *limited* time period is *not* a
proof. ;-)

As I just stated recently (thread "snaps shots not updating INBOX" where
you participated) I don't have these issues.

Mails in my IMAP servers are being updated and correctly displayed as
new mails in the tree. I am also using procmail (really, a lot) to
automagically sort my mails on (all) servers.


I suppose you have enables "check for new mails" and set to a sane
interval.

Does hitting the "Send / Receive" button manually update your tree view?

Have you confirmed, those new (but not yet displayed) messages haven't
reached your IMAP server during the last interval?

Now, that is a statement to give folks a shot of motivation, isn't it?
