Then you're truly among the lucky. :-) On the other hand, most can get
Binc IMAP up just as easily so that's also confusing.

You could check "man bincimap.conf". In the conf file, in the Mailbox
section, there's an item called "depot". And it can't be set to "Maildir";
just leave it as it is: Maildir++. Actually, the default conf file should
work perfectly well for you.

That should be echo -n, not just echo.

Looks right.

Just change depot="Maildir" back to depot="Maildir++", and your setup is
supposed to work just fine.
