Indeed, I completely missed the line shift, my apologies.
Initial testing is promising. I'm seeing disk reclamation taking
place within the 30 minute IDLE timer and I've got Outlook connected
to the account. I will have one of my regular Outlook users test for
a few days to see if they uncover any issues. I'll let you know what
I found out.

space (burping) following delete/expunge
In the patched version, the call to mail_check() is moved to inside the
idle loop, right after the ping_mailbox() call, instead of being called
just once at the the start of IDLE processing. This causes at least
one additional burp attempt, perhaps two more, while IDLE is in
process.
In the imap-2007b/c code, the call to mail_check() is outside the do-loop.
Assuming that the underlying problem -- mailboxes not being burped --
is due to there being a sharer when the burp was attempted, and that
there are no sharers during the 30 minutes in the idle loop, this patch
should remediate that underlying problem.

Thank you for the updated patch, it is greatly appreciated!
I tried patching and testing, but it appears the code segment that
is attached is the same as that found in the imap-2007b distribution,
with the exception of 7 lines which have tab/space differences.
In case I was missing something, I built using this code segment but
saw no change from the original distribution. Is there any chance
you sent the wrong code segment?

Two other people reported the same issue. I suspect that the problem
is the unguarded fs_give().
Try the attached more detailed patch, which is what I actually did as
opposed to what I typed in off-hand into Hotmail. It replaces the
existing IDLE code in imapd.c; delete the old code and drop the new
code in. Make sure that you get the correct places to delete/insert.
I would like definite confirmation that it works.
