Maybe, although I've characterized it slightly differently and have a
different workaround. As long as I'm "in" a particular IMAP file, I can't
get (or maybe can't see) new emails. I work around the problem by switching
to a different (small) IMAP file and back to the original, and then I can see
the files.
There may be some sort of rational reason why things work this way, but it is
somewhat disappointing.
