I have moved from dovecot 1.x to 2.x and I have big problem with
subfolders.
When I'm moving subfolder with other subfolders is moving only main
subfolder, without subfolders, example :

mail-storage-1 /var/vmail/home/adamskitest/mdbox/mailboxes # find | egrep
-e "janusz|jarek"
./jarek
./jarek/dbox-Mails
./jarek/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./jarek/jarek2
./jarek/jarek2/dbox-Mails
./jarek/jarek2/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./jarek/jarek2/jarek3
./jarek/jarek2/jarek3/dbox-Mails
./jarek/jarek2/jarek3/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./janusz
./janusz/dbox-Mails
./janusz/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./janusz/janusz2
./janusz/janusz2/dbox-Mails
./janusz/janusz2/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./janusz/janusz2/janusz3
./janusz/janusz2/janusz3/dbox-Mails
./janusz/janusz2/janusz3/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log

And now I'm moving jarek2 with jarek3 as subfolder to janusz2 subfolder,
result :

mail-storage-1 /var/vmail/home/adamskitest/mdbox/mailboxes # find | egrep
-e "janusz|jarek"
./jarek
./jarek/dbox-Mails
./jarek/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./jarek/jarek2
./jarek/jarek2/jarek3
./jarek/jarek2/jarek3/dbox-Mails
./jarek/jarek2/jarek3/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./janusz
./janusz/dbox-Mails
./janusz/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./janusz/janusz2
./janusz/janusz2/dbox-Mails
./janusz/janusz2/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./janusz/janusz2/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.cache
./janusz/janusz2/janusz3
./janusz/janusz2/janusz3/dbox-Mails
./janusz/janusz2/janusz3/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log
./janusz/janusz2/jarek2
./janusz/janusz2/jarek2/dbox-Mails
./janusz/janusz2/jarek2/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index.log

As You can see there is jarek2 subfolder but jarek3 havent been moved. I
can see this folder in Thunderbird, after clicking error message pops out
saying folder dosent exist.
