I can't really think of how I would implement this in any generic way. I can only think of ugly kludgy solutions.

There is a pretty simple way to do it though: create a script/binary which checks HOME/MAIL environment itself and creates the folders, then executes Dovecot's imap binary. Then set mail_executable in config file to your wrapper.

OR really if there was a way to tell dovecot a list of folders a user COULD NOT delete (But could delete the folders in side).

That could be done with ACLs, once Dovecot supports them.
