src/lib-storage/list/mailbox-list-maildir.c

struct mailbox_list maildir_mailbox_list = {
	MEMBER(name) MAILBOX_LIST_NAME_MAILDIRPLUSPLUS,
	MEMBER(hierarchy_sep) '.',

Change hierarchy_sep to ';'.

A better long-term plan would be to use listescape plugin:
http://dovecot.org/patches/1.1/listescape-plugin.c

That of course requires that you rename all the existing maildirs.
