Summary:                    dbmail-smtpd can not create new sub folders
Description: 
2188 appears to be the last build that is capable of creating subfolders
like so

dbmail-smtpd -u foo -m "INBOX/foo"

Later builds fail with a "Permissions denied" error.

Previously no hierarchical permissions checking was done when creating a
new mailbox. Now we check to make sure that we have permission to create a
folder below the parent folder. Your configuration sets all folders to
read-only -- so they are no longer permitted to have sub-folders created
within them...

On the one hand, a read-only folder is read-only -- 2.1.7 closes a bug
where one could create a new folder below a read-only folder... on the
other hand, it breaks your very useful read-only archive system.

Let's think about a permissions-oriented workaround.

I noticed the no_inferiors column in the dbmail_mailboxes table and can't
help but wonder if that attribute would make for a better check.

Best,
