I'm in the processes of running our first dsync backup of all users

  that dsync will work fine on first run for some users, and then
reliably fail whenever I try a new run:

        $ sudo dsync -u [email protected] backup ssh -q 
[email protected] dsync -u [email protected]
        $ sudo dsync -u [email protected] backup ssh -q 
[email protected] dsync -u [email protected]
        dsync-remote([email protected]): Error: Can't delete mailbox 
directory INBOX/a: Mailbox has children, delete them first

The problem here seems to be that this user has a maildir named
".a.b". On the backup side I see this as "a/b/".

So dsync doesn't quite seem to agree with itself for how to handle
folders with dot in the name.

dovecot -n output? What are you using for the namespace hierarchy separator?
