The reported bug is with Courier-IMAP not NuPOP. Seem's NuPOP is making some hidden files of it's own in the Maildir and Courier-IMAP seems to think their folders. Unless something in the Maildir spec forbids hidden files, I think this could easily be fixed by patching Courier-IMAP to ignore files and only list directories when doing a IMAP folder listing.
