I think the problem is that your imap server uses "." as a
mailbox separator so using a period in the name of a mailbox is going
to confuse things.
Have a read through man muttrc, there are two settings which come to
mind: $imap_delim_chars and $mask. Do read it though because I don't
use imap with mutt so I am not certain.
