[Dovecot] dot named folders

[Micah Anderson]

When a user makes a folder called 'x.y' it actually creates a folder
called 'x' with a folder called 'y' inside, rather than a folder called
'x.y'. I'm guessing this has to do with an internal folder separator
namespace configuration, but I'm a bit confused by how this works.

I'm using 2.0.15 with mdbox and this is what I have configured for my
namespaces:

namespace {
  separator = .
  prefix =
  inbox = yes
}

namespace {
  separator = .
  prefix = INBOX.
  inbox = no
  hidden = yes
  list = no
}

I migrated from courier maildirs, so perhaps I no longer need some of
these now that the conversion is finished?

thanks for any suggestions, I've got my head mixed up on this issue,
micah
