Here are my findings:

With the alternative namespace:
 - Traditional imp is able to subscribe and unsubscribe all folders.
 - With the dynamic view of imp it can unsubscribe from all folders but only 
re-subscribe folders in certain sublevels (INBOX.irina doesn't work, 
INBOX.irina.bla doesn't work, INBOX.irina.bla.blub does work)

With the normal namespace:
 - Dynamic view of imp can only subscribe to levels INBOX.irina.bla and below, 
not to INBOX.irina.

There are some facts that make me sreiously doubt that the problem is in my 
imapserver and not in the dynamic view of imp:
 - thunderbird works with the imapserver
 - traditional imp works with the imapserver
 - K9-Mail on Android works with the imapserver
 - All folders concerned where created with imp and cyradm reveals that the 
owner (me) has full access to the folders.

So, is it a bug to report in the bugtracker or is it a feature?

Have fun,

Arnold
