I can't tell you the best way to do things, but...
courier-imap doesn't support nested dirs. I use kmail which has a maildir-like
directory stucture. However, your structure in kmail would be stored as:
.maildir/spam
.maildir/.spam.directory
.maildir/.spam.directory/probable
.maildir/.spam.directory/record
.maildir/.spam.directory/sure
Try using mutt to create a nested dir and then use procmail to put it into
that dir. Of course, that doesn't help with courier-imap tho..
Sorry I couldn't be of more help!
