dovecot - Jan 2011 - Thunderbird doesn't popup on new mail

I have a question : i've upgrade dovecot from 1.1.4 to 2.0.9 and 
everything is fine except thunderbird clients , that no longer show a 
popup when new mail arrives. Anyone know why ?

No, but the main visible difference to clients is the IMAP CAPABILITY
string that is sent before login. Although v2.0.9 already has IDLE in
there as well, so I don't really know. You could anyway try setting
explicitly:

imap_capability = IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT
SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT CHILDREN
NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT
SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS QUOTA ACL

This could be bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627333

It seems that deleting all files from Maildir with name begining with 
dovecot , will fix this issue.
Ex :
rm ~/Maildir/dovecot*

Those files will be recreated by dovecot (dovecot-keywords , 
dovecot-uidlist  ,dovecot.index , etc )and from now on , the thunderbird 
will notify about every new mail.
