Sorry about the false alarm. For some reason I can't reproduce the
problem anymore either (still using Mozilla as client). The only
difference I can point to between now and then is an update from Mozilla
1.7.6 to 1.7.7, but this seems like an impossible explanation.  I'll
assume that I made a mistake (several times) during my testing. Maybe
the imap connection was persisting  during the various versions of
c-client.cf and the file is only read once when imapd starts (invoked by
inetd). Still, I am puzzled because I restarted Mozilla several times
intending to rule out this possible effect.

"Mailutil create" is not affected by "set new-folder-format
same-as-inbox", but I think this is by design.
