Yes, this kmail bug annoyed me too for quite some time.
It was really fixed not before KDE 3.5.3, and thus the fix came too late for
Dapper.
You'll need to upgrade to a newer KDE version (3.5.3 or later) to be able to
create imap folders with kmail when using dovecot.
You can find newer KDE

Best would be to backport the bugfix to dapper-updates from the new KDE

I didn't look at the bug closely enough)

Change from rejected to confirmed. It should'nt be difficult to
incorporate the upstream fix into the dapper package.

Here is a debdiff with the upstream patch to fix this. I made some quick
tests and had no problems creating imap folders and subfolders with the
new package.
