My suggestions: * show "a very un-informative error message from each" * paste dovecot -n output * play the game again - using telnet, e.g.: 4 LIST "" * * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "INBOX" 4 OK List completed. 5 CREATE INBOX/sub 5 OK Create completed. 6 CREATE INBOX/sub/subsub 6 OK Create completed. 7 LIST "" * * LIST (\HasChildren) "/" "INBOX" * LIST (\HasChildren) "/" "INBOX/sub" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "INBOX/sub/subsub" 7 OK List completed. 8 DELETE INBOX/sub/subsub 8 OK Delete completed. 9 DELETE INBOX/sub 9 OK Delete completed. 10 LIST "" * * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "INBOX" 10 OK List completed.
