Dovecot 1.1.8-0_85.el5
I'm seeing this set of messages repeat every 15 min. My best guess is
the user tried to delete an imap folder and is failing?

From here:
http://wiki.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers#homedirs I suspect it's a
problem with access to the home directory. The users have a home directory:
/var/spool/mail/domain/user (or at least that's where Maildir ends
up). vuser has 700 access to that entire structure (everything under
var/spool/mail/). Users log in with mysql accounts.
