As far as I know that applies to INBOX, but not its children, see RFC1730 
sec. 9. "Formal Syntax"

mailbox         ::= "INBOX" / astring
                        ;; INBOX is case-insensitive; other names may be
                        ;; case-sensitive depending on implementation.


For a workaround see:
