IMAP command for that is:

1 rename folder.subfolder subfolder

There's nothing in Dovecot that prevents that, so it's IMAP client's 
problem if it can't do that.. If nothing else works, try doing it 
manually:

telnet localhost imap2
x login username password
x list "" *
x rename old new

(the list just for checking what mailboxes actually exist)
