Have you figured it out? dsync (like Dovecot in general) anyway takes
the permissions for new folders from the mail root directory. So if new
folder is going to be in ~/Maildir/.foo/ and it doesn't exist, its
permissions are taken from ~/Maildir. If ~/Maildir doesn't exist either,
its permissions are set to 0700.
