However, I don't see any way to change the separator. Wrong guess. The real problem was that INBOX.pol was not a folder. It has subfolders like INBOX.pol.xxx that are real folders, however. This somewhat suprising behavior of have names without folders is how Cyrus does it, and appears consistent with the IMAP spec.

This problem persists, even with refreshes and restarts. Any ideas? And, again, my original goal was just to see all my folders, regardless of the subscription status. Any way to do that? Thanks.
