The dot-maildir thing sounds like a gentoo problem, which has dogged me
in the past too.  Whenever I emerge courier I run the following:

# fix subsidiary rc scripts to use ./Maildir as default maildir instead
of .maildir:
cd /usr/share/courier; perl -n -i -e 's#\.maildir#\./Maildir#; print;'
pop3d pop3d-ssl imapd imapd-ssl

You may be interested in my courier-to-mailman.pl script which I use for
automatically handling mailman mailing lists on lists.zygoat.ca.  It
should work for you if you have a subdomain whose sole purpose is to
handle lists (which it sounds like you do).  Script is attached -- if the
courier list rejects the attachment, I can send to you directly.
