sorry didnt tested lazy_plugin yet

try

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Listescape


Examples

Allow '.' characters with Maildir++ layout when virtual hierarchy
separator is changed to '/':

mail_plugins = $mail_plugins listescape

namespace private {
  separator = /
  inbox = yes
}

plugin {
  # The default escape character is '\', but you can change it.
  # Note that even here the expansion of % takes place, thus you need to
  # use "%%" if you want to have the % sign as the escape character.
  #listescape_char = "\\"
}

or change your general namespace settings to get it work , might be
better choice
