Hi Torsten, I have the same setup like you have (unixhierarchysep: yes, DOMAIN_AS_PREFIX=1) and my user also looks like you described with the "." in pace of the "@" but the server is running well, without any problems.
The users will then have to login with "user.domain.tld" as username. Thats the only thing i had to make them clear. Therefore i don't knwo if it is a bug or if ist is impleneted that way because authentivcation would make problems with with the @. Probably the @ is a reserved character in sasl or mysql or whatever.

I wonder if nobody ever noticed this or is just nobody using the "unixhierarchysep: yes" setting in imapd.conf?
