Chris,
thanks for trying to trying to help.
I should mention that we were using bincimap instead of Courier..what i stated
previously is wrong.
Ok, so I went looking & troubleshooting..eventually this page states
http://wiki.dovecot.org/MissingMailboxes#head-56902961efd9eb18e5c3535e6544d1414b24c347
"If you see a list of expected mailboxes, the problem is with your IMAP client."
I did perform the troubleshooting steps and this is what I get
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR SORT THREAD=REFERENCES MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE LOGIN-REFERRALS QUOTA STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Do vecot ready.
. login username@blah.com password
. OK Logged in.
. list "" *
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.spam"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "
INBOX.miva"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.saved-messages"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.bacula"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.solutions"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.passwds"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.sent-mail"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Trash"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "

* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.old_passwds"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Drafts"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.dco"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "
INBOX.fullteam"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "spam"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "miva"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "saved-messages"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "bacula"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "solutions"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "passwds"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "sent-mail"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Trash"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "cron"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "old_passwds"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Drafts"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "dco"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "fullteam"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX"
. OK List completed.
. logout
* BYE Logging out
. OK Logout completed.
So..what needs to be changed within Pine to accomodate for such? I'm also
using Thunderbird as a backup which seems to be unaffected so far.

We've got hundreds of happy Pine users.
Make sure you either a) remove the folder prefix (e.g. ~/mail) in your
folder collections or b) add ~/mail etc. as hidden namespaces in Dovecot
(see http://wiki.dovecot.org/MissingMailboxes and NameSpaces).
