[Dovecot] Update 1.2 -> 2.0 ... INBOX away?

Hi,

yesterday I did an update from dovecot 1.2 to 2.0.19 (Ubuntu 10.04 -> 
12.04).
After fixing the configuration dovecot startups as it should, but with 
one error, I don't understand: the INBOX will not be delivered to the 
Mailclient and will not be filled by "deliver".
Instead, dovecot create the two dirs "new" and "cur" directly in "Maildir".

the filesystem looks now like:
domain/user1/Maildir/INBOX	# official INBOX
domain/user1/Maildir/new      # new mail
domain/user1/Maildir/cur      # read mail

We have searched for an configuration error, but didn't found anything - 
or did not see one ;-)

Maybe there is someone in the list, which see our error in a moment?

We are using only imap/s and managesieve, no pop3. Maildir-Layout is FS.

Here a snippet of our configuration:

------------

mail_home =
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:LAYOUT=fs


namespace {
   hidden = no
   inbox = yes
   list = yes
   location =
   prefix =
   separator = /
   subscriptions = yes
   type = private
}
namespace {
   list = yes
   location = maildir:%%h/Maildir/:INDEX=%%h/Maildir/shared/%u:LAYOUT=fs
   prefix = shared/%%u/
   separator = /
   subscriptions = no
   type = shared
}
namespace {
   list = yes
   location = maildir:/srv/vmail/public:LAYOUT=fs
   prefix = public/
   separator = /
   subscriptions = no
   type = public
}

protocol lda {
   mail_plugins = sieve autocreate
}
protocol imap {
   imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail tb-lsub-flags tb-lsub-flags
   mail_max_userip_connections = 10
   mail_plugins = acl autocreate imap_acl
}

------------

Hope you can help!

Thank you!
