I've got problems, that seem similar, using the 0.99.8.1 .deb.
I'm using Maildir. I've got it set up on a user account to accept mail for root (into .admin), for postmaster (into .admin.postmaster), and for webmaster (.admin.webmaster).
Update:
Created a folder, "test", using Sylpheed. Okay. Copied mail to it. Okay. Tried to create subfolder "child". Error; not created. Created folder "test2". Okay. Tried to create subfolder "child". Error; not created.
Using mutt: created folder "test". Okay. Copied mail to it. Okay. Folder opens; mail is visible. Tried to create subfolder "child" (mutt prompts as test.child, accept). Okay. test folder no longer visible as mail container, but child folder is visible.
There's something weird happening when you put mail and subfolders in the same folder. Creating a subfolder means that any mail in the folder is no longer accessible. For whatever reason, sylpheed can't even see subfolders (much less create them).
I could try to tcpdump this, but it won't help much, I'm afraid: it's set to disable plaintext, so it always does starttls, which means the dump won't have any interesting information.
