What about trying to reproduce the same with doveadm commands? For example:

doveadm mailbox create -u $user -s testparent4/testchild4/subchild4
echo 'Subject: testmail' | doveadm save -u $user -m 
testparent4/testchild4/subchild4

I tested with the latest Thunderbird in OSX, and I already have similar folders 
in my Apple Mail. No issues with them other than having to restart Thunderbird 
for it to see the newly created folders.

What's your doveconf -n output?
