It was courier. However I don't think that's a good idea, because, hm, dunno... Hm, no, it's not good - if I create a new folder via IMAP with Courier, it will be named .foo. I've setup a cron script to create the symlinks. Hm, either way I can get it to work, if I think about it... Well, the matter is, I trust mutt more than Courier to do the "right" thing. And since the fix in mutt is rather trivial (by setting $mask to .*), I can live with the way it is now. Did it make sense what I wrote? No? Good! ;) Anyhow, problem is solved. But I think I'm going to write a bug about mutt using lstat instead of stat. That seems wrong to me.
