Isn't this "mailbox_idle_check_interval"?
# Like mailbox_check_interval, but used for IDLE command.
#mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30
It might be better to use "imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle"
instead. This pretends a new message has arrived just before the timeout
then says it was deleted. Your client is very broken if that doesn't
wake it up!
Best Wishes,
Chris
