Those Mac clients who do not use nested folders do not seem to be affected. That is, I've already suggested to the Mac Mail user that he start Thunderbird, move all his mailboxes into the IMAP root folder, and then go on using Mac Mail. I hope that's what he has done.
There is a bug in Mail.app that it always assumes / as hierarchy separator and completely ignores server provided separator.
Cite? Because no, that is not my experience at all.
From my maildir on my FreeBSD server:
# ls -lnd .root* drwx------ 5 89 89 512 Oct 14 05:16 .root drwx------ 5 89 89 512 Oct 14 02:02 .root.44 drwx------ 5 89 89 512 Oct 14 02:02 .root.Cron drwx------ 5 89 89 512 Oct 14 05:16 .root.Hastur … etc
Works fine in Mail.app on Mac OS and has for at least 16 years.
