It should be mentioned somehow that one can't just change the hierarchy
separator on the fly (without manual changes to the fs).

If you used . as the separator, it would look this in the filesystem:
.testfolder.sub1
Now you change the separator to $.
Your mail client will see the existing folders as .testfolder.sub1
instead of:

testfolder
   sub1

Cheers,
