Not knowing the Sieve syntax my self, would it provide a bit of
'regex' and substitution? If so, then it would be a matter of a filter
that found the mailing list headers, extracted the mailing list name,
and then substituted that in for the folder name. Dovecot LDA makes
the required folders as needed... Somehow, I don't think it's in there
though ;-)

Is this not a problem for most IMAP clients? Maybe if Dovecot LDA
added all newly created folders to the subscription file. It would
also be nice, if we had some forced folder subscriptions, or other
backends for folder subscription (MySQL would be nice).
