FWIW I'm using Dovecote 1 or 2 for the IMAP. In particular, Dovecot 1 with Squirrelmail has been really hammered, but has never broken. I sometimes get time-outs copying thousands of emails in one hit, but that's fair enough and nothing has ever been lost. Could the server be the problem in your case? I found the standard imapd did weird things for a lot of clients, and making the switch after many years of trying to blame the client software was a really good decision.

Running Cyrus here for ages, it might be a bit of pain to set up, but it's been a really bulletproof and "zero maintenance" solution. The problems cannot be replicated on any other client, only Squirrel has those problems with mail not showing up.

We run postfix/cyrus mail servers. My experience with messages not showing up happens with Outlook (versions 2003, 2007, and 2013), squirrelmail, and mac mail. In all cases reported, the user can find messages either by sorting by date or by searching on some matching criteria. We put this in our FAQ. I have not noticed this issue with a server using sendmail/dovecot.
