[Dovecot] changing the separator

[Alan Mosca [Aluminati]]

I've made some progress in a sense that I've tried with no success at 
all, which is more due to my scarce knowledge of dovecot's code more 
than anything else, so I started just looking at the code and trying to 
understand before carrying on. TBH in the last couple of weeks I have 
not been doing much for personal reasons, but I plan on starting to work 
again on it around easter time. Sorry if it's taking so long, but the 
way the maildir part was written seems like it would need some good 
thinking before something that actually works comes out.
  I'm trying my best! ;)
