Yes, a nice feature. However, just preventing the users from
accidentally deleting the folders would save me (and I have to imagine
others out there) some serious headaches! If this is as simple as
adding a "bincimap-undeletable" administrative file then I say please
consider it.

I am not sure I understand. An actual ACL implementation would in fact
prevent Sqwebmail users from deleting folders (wouldn't it?)
Anyway, in my case there would be only M$ OutLook users so it would suit
me perfectly! : )

Yes I agree.
I use spambnc (see http://www.freshports.org/mail/spambnc/) with qmail
+ Maildir/ + Binc IMAP + procmail. I had to modify the provided
procmailrc slightly to accomodate this feature because it was writing
files with the proposed folder names instead of making the folders
themsleves. If anyone is interested and can't figure it out email me
for details...
So, I am still somewhat confused about the planned ACL support. Do you
plan to incorporate ACL still? Or, have you simply changed your mind on
that?
