[Dovecot] Not using "." as separator?

[Grant Edwards]

When using maildir storage, is there any way to use something
besides "." as the folder separator?  

I like to use folder names that match people's e-mail addresses
(that's a default behavior in mutt), and "." is a pretty
popular character in e-mail addresses.  Ideally, I'd like to
use "/".

Is "." allowed in mailbox names when using mbox storage?
