I can confirm that running dovecot with a line in the conf file like the
one above does work.  I use the following with dovecot when I want/need to
access my mutt maildir store with clients that can't read directly from
the file system.

     mail_location = maildir:~/mail:INBOX=~/mail/Inbox:LAYOUT=fs

To be explicitly clear, my maildir structure has IMAP folders as
directories on the file system and not encoded in the mailbox name with
'.' or some other character:

     mail/Inbox
     mail/lists/mutt
     mail/lists/offlineimap
     etc.
