Try creating INBOX/mail/ . ]" Oddly enough, the error message is exactly right, and indicates the exact problem. Thunderbird is under the impression that the Sent folder must by default be at the top-level. However, with the Maildir++-style depots, this is not possible. Your options are to either go to Thunderbird's preferences and tell it to use the Sent folder that is a subfolder of INBOX, or convert your Binc server to use an IMAPdir-style depot instead of a Maildir++-style one.
