You may want to ask for help with Dovecot on their mailing list if IMAP
isn't working itself (log in on the command line and test!). Be careful
what is happening, as I suspect you already have a Sent folder. If so,
this means your expected folder list is not what is being returned from
Dovecot. Do you really have the same configuration for Dovecot and
SquirrelMail as before? Double check your IMAP settings and try saving
your configuration file to the side and starting from scratch by using the
config/conf.pl tool and let SquirrelMail set up the IMAP settings only by
using option D and indicating the IMAP server is Dovecot.
