I've got a somewhat convoluted setup where I'd like to:

  • sync email from hosted provider via offlineimap to local Maildir++
  • use Dovecot to host a local IMAP server backed by said Maildir++
  • run imapfilter against Dovecot to filter and manage emails
  • re-sync emails back to my hosted provider via offlineimap

I've been playing around with the Dovecot part of this over the weekend, and mostly got it working. The primary reason for looking at this was speed of filtering - it's painfully slow running imapfilter against my hosted mail provider.

I had assumed that, by Dovecot using the Maildir++ backing store, that the changes applied when imapfilter was run, would be reflected in the underlying Maildir++ messages, but I'm not seeing that.

Is my understanding incorrect, or is it likely to be a configuration issue?
