What IMAP server are you using?  You seem to have a mix of systems.
Maildir systems use the format under Maildir, and the "Mail" folder
appears to be a mbox format (possibly, I cannot tell if
"almost-certainly-spam" is a file, or folder).  Maildir uses .<name>
to delimit a folder name.  Your imap server should support maildir.
SquirrelMail doesn't care about the underlying mail structure, just
that your IMAP server is hosting them up.
