 The only issue i have seen is the creation of imap folders - but I just do

It really would help to know what goes wrong.
Kinda difficult to even consider fixing things without that..

Some googling only shows problems with deleting emails, and a simple fix to not 
store trash on the server..
I do not have leopard and will not have this anytime soon I think, my mac is 
not fast enough..

Anyways, I do not see anyone having a dismissive attitude of things related to

 I also tested this with a separate installation on a Postfix server,
 running Cirrus-IMAP, and everything works as it should (no surprise,
 since Apple's OS X Server also uses Cirrus). While there may be some
 work-arounds in the short term, personally I see a better long-term
 solution to be to replace Courier-IMAP with the Cirrus solution -
 aside from fixing this issue, it also has a smaller footprint, and
 much better efficiency (i.e. less load on a server with a larger n
 umber of users).

 Not sure if this has already shown up on any radar, but wanted to
 share a general head's up, and hoping that a solution may be
 forthcoming.

Re: [qmailtoaster] QT / Courier-IMAP and Apple's Leopard (OS X 10.5)

No, of course not, which is why I carefully worded my subject line.

I've used it under Tiger and its Mail Client (Mail.app v2.0) since Day
One, and never had an issue.

This issue only surfaced, and was reported in multiple places, since
the release of Leopard 10.5 and the associated Mail Client (Mail.app
v3.0).

  Users will find themselves unable to delete files and folder under
  certain circumstances. I was able to replicate this. Current
  work-arounds don't always work, and are usually on the mail-client end
  - hence, not really acceptable as genuine fixes.
