I have an courier IMAP server running. To get sib dirs working I had to rename them all to begin with a period ".".
e.g
Maildir Maildir/{cur,new,tmp} Maildir/.account1/{cur,new,tmp} Maildir/.account2/{cur,new,tmp} Maildir/.account3/{cur,new,tmp}
I hope these "account" directories really are a single user's mailboxes and not different users' mail directories..
If I uninstall Courier and install dovecot, will these "period" dirs be seen by default?
Yes. Dovecot and Courier use compatible Maildir++ directory structure where mailboxes all begin with a dot. http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir explains it more.
