After some e-mail discussion, we agreed that I will take care of this bug, and 
of account-polld in general.
Niklas did some great work on it to support Dekko and IMAP accounts, but as Dan 
wrote in comment 18, with POP3 support coming to Dekko it becomes apparent that 
we cannot keep replicating every protocol implementation in account-polld. So, 
the long term solution is to have account-polld support out-of-process plugins, 
which can be written in any language and which can possibly reuse some of the 
application code.
I'll write more on that later, to the mailing list.

As for the immediate fix, I'll add support for Dekko's GMail accounts
only (because they use OAuth, and don't require major changes in
account-polld). For notifications for generic IMAP and POP3 accounts
we'll have to wait, unfortunately.

** Changed in: account-polld (Ubuntu)
