i have no idea what changed in dovecot2
looks like capability anounce changed somehow

horde/imp does a check which seems to get workarounded by

horde/lib/Horde/IMAP/ACL/rfc2086.php

if (substr($this->_params['protocol'], 0, 4) != 'imap') {
            /* No point in going any further if it's not an IMAP server. */
            $this->_error = PEAR::raiseError(_("Only IMAP servers
support shared folders."));
            $this->_supported = false;
        } elseif (!isset($this->_caps['acl'])) {
            /* If we couldn't get the server's capability, we'll assume
ACL is
               not supported for now. */

----change---from---false---to---true

$this->_supported = true;



        } else {
            $this->_supported = true;
        }

anyway perhaps Timo knows more about
capability in dove2, guess thats the reason why mulberry
does not show acls too
