[Dovecot] Migration to mdbox from Maildir, missing folders!
So I went and migrated a mailbox from mdbox from maildir format. All seemed ok, but I've found that I now have some missing folders. The mailbox in maildir format had some folders which contained an '&' sign, these appear to have been omitted... What can be done? (I have a backup of the maildir box). Note though that mdbox is now a live mailbox and has sent and received mails since the migration... -- Message sent via my webmail account.

And give some specifics, like outputs of: ls -a ~/Maildir/ ls ~/mdbox/mailboxes/ or something similar.
