I don't  remember what the  option was, although  it looked like  a c-client
option from what I could tell
       if (((d->d_name[0] != '.') ||
           (((int) mail_parameters (NIL,GET_HIDEDOTFILES,NIL)) ? NIL :
            (d->d_name[1] && (((d->d_name[1] != '.') || d->d_name[2]) &&
                              strcmp (d->d_name+1,MXINDEXNAME+2))))) &&
in src/osdep/unix/dummy.c

I could not  figure out whether it was possible  to set GET_HIDEDOTFILES for
uwimapd, so,  I just disabled  it altogether  (well, actually the  patch was
written before  GET_HIDEDOTFILES existed, so  it was  quicker to keep  it in
than to try to figure how how to set GET_HIDEDOTFILES)

You can find my (obvious) patch here:
http://marc.merlins.org/linux/uwimap/
http://marc.merlins.org/linux/uwimap/files/imap-2001aRC2.nodotfiles.patch
(actually the patch was initially from Jauder Ho)

The "right way" does lie with GET_HIDEDOTFILES if you can enable it somehow

Note too that you're probably better off if you compile uwimap with 
-DHOMEMAILDIR="Mail"
so that the "root" is ~/Mail and not ~/
