Hi,
with mozilla there's an option to check mail in all folders, useful for 
server side filtering with sieve
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18266

The problem is that to do that mozilla opens various connections to the 
server to check various folders ot once. With cyrus 2.0.16, and now with 
2.1.3 (but not with 1.6.24), seen messages "resuscitate" various times 
(I read some messages, they're marked as seen, and after a while they're 
unseen again, and this annoying cycle repeats various times). This is 
probably due cyrus caching of the seen state, so that with various imapd 
active at once, one may see the message as seen and the other as unseen. 
This has been discussed here before

but I don't see a clear solution/patch.
The last message in that thread
http://asg.web.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.info-cyrus&msg=12897
tells that the problem went away when the user that reported it upgraded 
from kernel 2.2.14 to 2.4.18. Well, I'm using 2.4.18 and still have the 
problem. Any hint?
TIA
