> I'm using dovecot-2.3.17.1-1.fc34.x86_64 on fedora34 and Thunderbird 91
on fedora35. When creating a folder of type "folders only" in
Thunderbird, then trying to delete it, it doesn't actually delete it from
the filesystem. Is this a permissions problem? Or perhaps a Thunderbird problem?
Are you using MBOX backend?
I think I ran across this problem and it's some confusion as to
whether the target is a file or directory. I was finally able to
delete it by appending '/' to the name of the folder in my
mail reader, but some mail readers do not allow you to type the
mailbox name to delete.
I believe Tbunderbird has some IMAP server setting that will give it a hint.
