<p>I run RoundCube (not on a BlueOnxy server though) and I have created Folders within folders. In fact this week I created a folder under my Fail2Ban folder for IP's that have been blocked, and another one for if I have to restart Fail2Ban after making changes. </p>
<p>I am using version 0.8.1, I haven't upgraded to .0.9.x yet. </p>

<p>What Squirrelmail does is create a disk folder for the top level where the message folders are filed, and also creates further disk folders in the .imap folder - all in the user email folder (too many folders in that sentence).</p>
<p>Where I have imported IMAP accounts directly from other servers the folders, etc seem to come in OK.</p>
<p>It just seems that for some reason RC doesn't do this - or maybe it does but is configured not to.</p>

Also you can't forward more than one mail in one go in Roundcube using the standard install.</blockquote>
<pre>There's a reason behind it - mbox. The way it's stored on the server is anything that contains mail is a file. So you have an inbox file, a sent items file etc. Each of those is a load of messages stored in a single file. Now if you make a new folder, you're making a new file which can contain messages. So to create a sub folder you're infact trying to create a file under a file - obviously in filesystem land this doesn't work. Squirrelmail / some other mail clients can work around this by calling the folder something else, I can't remember exactly what it is, but it adds some sort of suffix/prefix to it (so you 'filing' folder is called 'filing.folder' and the messages in a file called 'filing'.
Bit confusing but it does make sense if you understand what's happening behind the scenes. RoundCube talks via IMAP (in most cases), and I'm not sure Dovecot supports making stuff like this (but I could be talking nonsense, feel free to correct me!)
