No; that looks right.  It's the same as the ones for "cur" etc. that you
posted.  It would only be a concern if it was "dr-x--S---" or something.  
It was a long shot guess.  :-)

Yes.  The IMAP server will run as the user ID you log in as (in your case
"stephan") so the directories and files only need to be writable to that
user.  You don't want them writable by everyone.

I'm looking at something else from your previous post:

"Maildir/" shouldn't appear anywhere in your Horde/IMP configuration.  
On my system, Courier IMAP is started with "Maildir" as one of the 
parameters, which is what links the IMAP folder name to a directory 
location:

	INBOX       -> ~/Maildir/
        INBOX.Trash -> ~/Maildir/.Trash/

etc.  You may or may not want "INBOX." to appear in your Horde/IMP 
configuration, so that an "INBOX." prefix doesn't show to your users.  But 
I don't think you want "Maildir/" anywhere in there.  On my system, 
'folders' => ''.
