Re: IMAP IDLE and MMP

IDLE must be enabled on the store - it is a function of the store to notify that 
new mail has arrived because only the store can know that.  The fact that the 
IMAP connection to that store comes in through an MMP should be irrelevant.  But 
you probably have to set the default:capability in the ImapProxyAservice.cfg 
file to make the MMP advertise it.
