[Dovecot] Problem Deleting IMAP Folders

Hello,
In my configuration I have

mail_location = maildir:/Mail/frank.gr/%n:INDEX=/Mail/frank.gr/ 
__Indexes/%u

I can create new folders in an IMAP session, but when I try to delete  
I get permission denied.

 From the LOG

Sep 10 13:20:06 IMAP(stuart): Error: unlink_directory(/Mail/frank.gr/ 
__Indexes/stuart/.TEST) failed: Permission denied

ls -ald /Mail/frank.gr/__Indexes/stuart/.TEST
drwx------ 2 mail mem 4096 2009-09-10 13:20 /Mail/frank.gr/__Indexes/ 
stuart/.TEST/


ls -al /Mail/frank.gr/__Indexes/stuart/.TEST
total 12
drwx------ 2 mail mem 4096 2009-09-10 13:20 ./
drwx------ 4 mail mem 4096 2009-09-10 13:20 ../
-rw------- 1 mail mem  156 2009-09-10 13:20 dovecot.index.log


It looks like dovecot is trying to unlink the INDEX directory without  
first deleting the index log file.

Anyone else experienced this problem ?
