Sorry about that, Gary, but the fact that you were allowed to create a
mailbox called "INBOXsomething" in 1.0.22 was a bug that had several other
sideeffects, such as allowing the client to delete folder metadata
(uidvalidity and cache).
The fix is to rename the folders called INBOXsomething manually, like
this:
cd ~/Maildir/
mv something .somthing
Now - the problem you have with being unable to create folders at all -
that's a bug introduced in this release. It's one line that's wrong in the
CREATE function and I'm fixing it as we speak. There will be a 1.0.23-2
release fixing this problem. Here's the patch:
