So far, the only successful attempt was with KMail, but I had to use the quite ugly syntax INBOX.firstleveldir.secondleveldir.

What syntax were you expecting to use?


On our internal system, which uses wu-imapd (I know) and mbox storage, I have no trouble at all creating subfolders, even if a folder cannot contain messages.

Neither does Courier-IMAP.

I can even migrate the whole mbox tree to a Maildir tree and it's viewed correctly by all MUAs cited above.

See?  You would not've been able to do that, if it weren't the case.

What's more, I don't see any relevant configuration directive in the IMAP server configuration file that could help --- at least, not a directive that is documented.

There are no configuration directives that would somehow allow Courier-IMAP to fix limitations in IMAP clients.

Do you have any enlightenment on whether this can work at all? Is it written somewhere in the documentation and I have overlooked it (which I certainly do not reject as a possibility)? I'm at a complete loss here.

It works just fine, as long as the mail client properly implements IMAP.
