What exactly do you mean by "not really reliable"?  Do you mean sometimes
the cur dir timestamps and sometimes it doesn't?  Or do you mean that the
timestamp itself may be off a few minutes?  If it is off a few minutes, I
can work with that.

If it sometimes doesn't timestamp, what situations would cause it not to
timestamp, or is it a bug?

Sort-of, but not really.  You could check the read timestamp on
.../cur, but that's not really reliable.  Look at what qmail-popbull
does, which is to touch a timestamp file.
