No.  IMAP does not require that foo.bar must be a folder if foo.bar.baz is a 
folder (with . being the hierarchy separator character).  It is sufficient 
to foo.bar being a folder directory, which is what Courier will return in 
this case.

No.  Just create this folder manually, using the IMAP client.  You need to 
use the -f option to maildirmake to set everything up correctly.
