Unfortunately you didn't tell us which part of dovecot is doing the
delivery and which structure your folders are. That could be lda, lmtp
or even your MTA. But I am quite sure that you can't match existing
folders case-insensistively, except if you are working on a
case-insensitive filesystem *and* not using dbox. In this case it
shouldn't depend on the delivery method.
