Since you are already renaming things, not one line will do the job. I would
have considered to use the value
folder-collections="Locali" #mc/INBOX.mail.[]
This solve the problem ;-)
but that will not do either because you are already renaming folders
manually. I do not think you can do what you want given what you reported.
Sorry if my poor english don't explain exacly what I want to communicate.
I have only tried to copy renaming some folder for test.
May be when situation is stabilized I do a global rename of folders, but
not now that I need to sync them before putting the new server in
production.
Now my folder list is:
INBOX sent-mail saved-messages
1999[.] 2000[.] 2001[.] 200126
200128 2002[.]
2003[.] 2004[.] 2005[.] 2006[.]
2007[.] 2008[.]
2009[.] 2010[.] 2011[.] 2012[.]
2013[.] 2014[.]
2015[.] 2016[.] 2017[.] 2018[.]
2019[.] 2020[.]

The key is #mC instead of #mD that I tried before.
I don't know the differences, but it solves my visualization "problem" ;-)
And except for the "." instead of "/" all seems more similar to my old
server/Alpine.
It seems that you need to spend some time in the configuration screen. Press
M S C and look at all the options under [ Folder Preferences ].
[ Folder Preferences ]

I have:

no more [.] separated from folder name (not interested to insert mails
into the root of a folder)
That is what I wanted ;-)
The only problem I noticied is that while I can create a subfolder saving
a message in FOLDER.subfolder , when I try to delete it it give me this
error:
[Can not read #mc/Maildir/.mail.23.12a//: No such file or directory]
subfolder
[Can not read #mc/Maildir/.mail.2312c//: No such file or directory]
folder
It deletes the messagges, but not the folders.
Thanks for your support.
Using Pine/Alpine since old RH 4.x (may be also in Slack before), I always
migrated my profiles simply copying the user folder and this is surely
less good than start a new clean profile ...
