Version of courier-imap? Obtained from where, or compiled with which
options? Are people using IMAP directly, or is there a webmail frontend? Are
most of your users using the same IMAP client, and if so, what is it?

If this is repeatable, and you are running current code, then you could help
debug it.

When a folder is in this state, take a look at the file permissions:

# ls -l courierimapacl

Then 'mv' the file to another location, gzip it, and then post it here as an
attachment. Then we can look to see if its contents make sense.

Also - once you've deleted courierimapacl and the user logs in again, does a
new courierimapacl get created? If so, what does it contain?

If courierimapacl is corrupt, that's one thing. If it contains a valid ACL
which is preventing users from seeing their own folders, then I guess we
need to determine whether a client has actually requested the ACL change, or
if not, how it has become changed.
