Well, I've been doing some research, and it seems that msoutlook 2016 and 2019 doesn't quite have imap idle support. The odd part, is that when i had DBMail, it was IDLE'ing (i swear), Would dbmail send something different that make it work? It was an old version of dbmail, 2.3.7 i believe, from about 2012 or so. And no, it wasn't the outlook options "send/receive", i had and have that disabled, Don't have explanation, thunderbird IDLE's perfectly -----Original Message----- From: dovecot <dovecot-bounces at dovecot.org> On Behalf Of Jorge Bastos via dovecot Sent: Tuesday, July 23, 2019 22:47 To: 'Dovecot Mailing List' <dovecot at dovecot.org> Subject: RE: Help with IMAP IDLE Yes, Escape character is '^]'. * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE LITERAL+ AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN]> Yes, it works with other IMAP servers, why should not work with dovecot? > It was working with DBMail, and it's working with an account from my Telcothat used cirus-imap.

Guys, I just discovered the reason! When i migrated the account from the old imap server to the new (dovecot), i didn't removed and created the account in msoutlook, as i didn't saw any reason to do it. Creating the account again, IDLE works ok! Stupid outlook!

As if the account was correctly migrated then there was no reason for recreating the account. Sami
