Brian, as always, JUST after sending the question about maildirs/mboxes to
the list, I figured out that the culprit was, in fact, Squirrelmail and not
sqwebmail -- apologies!

If it does that, then you're not using sqwebmail :-)

Sqwebmail supports *only* maildirs. It doesn't even have any code capable of
writing to a mbox file. Folders created by sqwebmail are done using the
maildir++ convention:

    Maildir/tmp
           /new
           /cur
           /.MyFolder/tmp                # A folder
                     /new
                     /cur
           /.MyFolder.Subfolder/tmp      # A folder within a folder
                               /new
                               /cur

Some people have been working on them; the list archives at
http://www.mail-archive.com/sqwebmail%40inter7.com/ may give some pointers,
but I'm not sure at what release stage they are. The templates in the core
package have recently changed to make them XML-compliant, and template
writers had been discouraged from working on them until this work was
complete.

Regards,

Brian.
