This is a user-interface design issue with your mail client. IMAP servers
are free to use any folder namespace arrangement that's technically convenient
for them. Courier-IMAP uses "INBOX." as the namespace for private folders, and
"shared." as the namespace for public, shared, folders. The IMAP NAMESPACE
extension (see http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2342.txt
)
allows IMAP clients to automatically discover where the server creates
folders, and your IMAP client should implement it.
This should be completely transparent to you, if your IMAP client properly uses the NAMESPACE extension. Your IMAP mail client can automatically find out that Courier-IMAP always creates private folders as subfolders of INBOX, and make this process completely transparent for you.
