As far as I know, IDLE *ONLY* notifies changes in the selected mailbox.
If you want to monitor all mailboxes, you have to use NOTIFY. But
checking around I see references to something called "enhanced idle",
apparently able to notify changes in any mailbox using IDLE. For instance:

<http://kb.mozillazine.org/How_do_I_check_for_new_messages_in_other_folders#IMAP>

I would like to know more about that "enhanced IDLE". How to activate it
in Dovecot would be nice too :-p

I hope this is not offtopic. Thanks for your time and your help.
