Ah, maybe that's it then: I use a logical link "INBOX -> ." as KMail
and SquirrelMail differ on what the actual INBOX is. One thinks that
it's the Maildir itself, the other expects an INBOX-folder. I can't
seem to make them agree...

Would it be hard to ignore .imap.index-files in the root of the
Maildir? After all, they are files, not folders. Or does this go
against the definition of the Maildir-format?
