For IMAP, rename the folders to start with a dot, and adjust the
recipes accordingly.
Whether the names of the folders start with a dot has nothing to do
with IMAP. I use IMAP every day and all of my folders are plain-old
flat-files like "formail" dismantles. Most IMAP servers will
interpret several different mailbox formats; however, the reference
implementation of the IMAP4r1 standard (UW IMAP) will *not* interpret
maildir format, and in fact hides files and directories that begin
with a dot.
So please don't confuse the access protocol with the storage format,
it only spreads misinformation.
Ah, was totally not aware of that, have only seen setups yet where both
the starting dot and the maildir format were necessary to get things
working propely. So to me now it is a practical rule, haven't seen
otherwise yet.
