I'll second the need/bug/fix, an employee handed me an iPhone on Monday 
to get hooked up to Dovecot 1.0.1 over IMAP/SSL. We run Dovecot in 
Courier-IMAP namespace mode, I had to find the advanced section of the 
iPhone Mail (labeled IMAP Prefix?) and add INBOX. to it.

On a good note, it works very well - sent, drafts, folders and SSL are 
all humming along for him.
