No, that was a thinko on my part... of course the separator between
subfolders is a '.' (or a '/' if using unixheirarchysep).

And no users who have understanding of mailbox ACLs, or have ever
asked about restricting mail to their subfolders. Also, the users
don't have a tool to manipulate their ACLs easily, since they've never
asked I've never installed one, and they primarily use Outlook Express
as an MUA. In this case, setting this up on the MTA side was the best
alternative, because there's no management required on my part nor theirs.
