I use Thunderbird (yesterday it was 3.1.1 and now it is 3.1.2) as my IMAP client. When I connect to my IMAP account on second server, and create mailbox, I see that there appears greyed folder named #virtual^Sent , and my new mailbox is in it.
Did you add that "#virtual^Sent" prefix yourself? Did you configure it in your TB setup? Is it intended to have it?
To check the problem I simplified my Dovecot config to the bare minimum, and it also won't work (#virtual^Sent still there). When I see on server disk, I see there .#virtual^Sent.NewTestMailbox dir (NewTestMailbox is the test mailbox I created), but there is no .#virtual^Sent dir.
There doesn't need to be ".#virtual^Sent" dir for it to have children, that's normal.
But your explanation is confusing. Also make sure it's not a Thunderbird configuration problem. Talk IMAP protocol directly to your server: http://wiki.dovecot.org/TestInstallation and show me what commands give unexpected results. For creating mailboxes you can use:
a create "mailbox name"
