The separator is the IMAP separator, not the filesystem separator.

Oh, it was so quick to fail that I didn't realize it had successfully updated the remote mailboxes :-) Thanks! But isn't it a bug that users are allowed to create folders named .a.b, or that dovecot creates this as a folder named .a.b instead of .a/.b when the separator is "." ? -jf

I added this namespace on the destination:
namespace {
inbox = yes
location =
prefix = INBOX.
separator = .
type = private
}
and am getting the same error:
dsync-remote(janfr...@tanso.net): Error: Can't delete mailbox directory
INBOX.a: Mailbox has children, delete them first
This was with a freshly created .a.b folder on source. With no messages
in .a.b and also no plain .a folder on source:
$ find /usr/local/atmail/users/j/a/janfr...@tanso.net/.a*
/usr/local/atmail/users/j/a/janfr...@tanso.net/.a.b
/usr/local/atmail/users/j/a/janfr...@tanso.net/.a.b/maildirfolder

So here on source you have namespace separator '.' and in destination you have separator '/'? Maybe that's the problem? Try with both having '.' separator.
