I am confused but I will take a stab.
:)

Your imp server decides where the new folder is to go on the filesystem.  For
uw-imap, you have to compile this in to change it from the users's home
directory, $HOME.  

So in other words, more than likely, when you create a folder it is created
like:
/home/$user/$new_folder

Is this what you are asking?
