Sorry to resurrect this old post, but I am getting the P0444 as well. The PPI didn't catch it, but I was able to read it from my own software. I'll check out the gas cap, and see if it needs tightening or replacing.
yikes...any idea how that happened? just old age?
Replace the gas cap first. It is not expensive and with how old it is, the rubber around it could be creating a bad seal.
A new gas cap fixed my code.

I was also getting some P0444 codes. I replaced the purge valve and cleared the codes. So far the code has not returned. It's been about two weeks. Driven about 200 miles.
replaced my gas cap, cleared the codes, didnt come back for about 200 miles, then came back for a day and went away. Now it is on permanently, about 400 miles after changing the cap. AND THAT IS SO FUNNY you mention the rotten eggs, because I get a random whiff of that every now and then, and I have been wondering what that is!! I checked the resistance on the current valve and got a minimum of 30.4 ohms; to my knowledge it should be in the mid 20s. I am buying a new purge valve ASAP. Any one know who manufactures the BMW purge valves? Is it Vaico? Febi? Anyone have experience with these brands, or should I just go genuine?
EDIT: Ended up just going genuine. few extra bucks, but peace of mind
