Francis,

I can guarantee you that an out-of-the-box installation of thunderbird
allows subfolder-creation on an out-of-the-box installation of
courier-imap, unless maybe you're using ancient versions of any. even
creation of nested subfolders to more levels than a halfway sane user
would ever need is no problem.

the only server-side problem I can imagine is folder ACLs that
courier-imap respects but not other imap servers, or if you modified the
IMAP_CAPABILITY setting in the imapd config.

however, as Sam points out, the fact that you _can_ create subfolders
with one mail client but not with others suggests this is a client-side
problem. fire up ethereal, look at the client-server conversation and
where they differ for different mail clients, and try to figure out due
to which client config setting this is.

good luck!
- DAve.
