    No, but I suggest a search on the list archives, there's a lot about outlook
    and also about IDLE in them. As for the build failing, it shouldn't. If it
    does, it is a bug.

    That said, I recall that if enabled, IDLE timeout must be kept fairly low,
    less than 30 minutes or somesuch, or else outcrook croaks. The archives
    will have more info.

    I was exaggerating a bit, but the sad truth is that Outlook and friends are
    among the worst IMAP clients you will find (due to quirks and bugs in their
    IMAP code).

    There are others in this list with extensive Outlook support experience,
    they can tell you what is needed to get those **** things to work reasonably
    well with Cyrus.
