I run a small home mail server for my family. One of them uses a
Blackberry to access her email. In order to permit a "burp" to happen
from time-to-time, could I occasionally bring down uw-imap, physically
unplug my Ethernet, bring up uw-imap and wait a while (?) for a burp to
happen, then plug in the ethernet? A pain, but I could do that once
every few months......

Burping happens automatically whenever the mailbox is opened
exclusively read-write.
An added complication may be that Blackberry polls the imap server
for my messages periodically so the file may be periodically open by
other processes.
BlackBerry keeps the mailbox opened read-only at all times, a state
that neither can be burped nor permits burping by others. The change
in UW's imap-2007e that was supposed to support BlackBerry burping
does not, in fact, solve the problem.
