FWIW the disk layout which Evolution displays as above is:

    Maildir/{cur,tmp,new} # AKA "INBOX"
    Maildir/.PATCHES/{cur,tmp,new}
    Maildir/.PATCHES.WIP/{cur,tmp,new}
    Maildir/.PATCHES.FOO/{cur,tmp,new}
    Maildir/.Cronspam/{cur,tmp,new}

Just mentioning for clarity in case you thought it was:

    Maildir/{cur,tmp,new} # AKA "INBOX"
    Maildir/PATCHES/{cur,tmp,new}

because I thought the first (with the dots) _was_ compliant Maildir++.

I can see why you might want that (orthogonally to whether the single .
prefix is valid Maildir++ or not).
