Set up a local folder collection to have "#driver.unix/" as the prefix 
for the name, e.g.,
 	folder-collections=Mail\[],
 		"Create New Mailbox" #driver.unix/mail\[]

Did you use the correct syntax, which is a prefix of "#driver.unix/"?

You probably won't be very happy with how traditional UNIX format works in 
PC Alpine, but this is how you do it.
