faulty recursive subfolder creation

Hi,

since 2 days we notice a strange error message from Squirrelmail from a 
specific user (I'm translating it from German):

-------------
ERROR: Action could not be completed.
Query: SUBSCRIBE 
"INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08"
Reason: no such mailbox
-------------

IMAP log says:

-------------
20.08.2012, 11:14:45: debug: 25657 >A003 LIST "" 
"INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012"<

The faulty folder creation seemingly had started some time before:

-------------
20.08.2012, 10:17:09: debug: 3767 >A018 LIST "" "INBOX.Sent/2012"<
20.08.2012, 10:17:09: debug: 3767 >A019 CREATE "INBOX.Sent/2012/"<
20.08.2012, 10:17:09: debug: 3767 >A020 SUBSCRIBE "INBOX.Sent/2012"<
-------------

and at the next login

-------------
20.08.2012, 10:22:11: debug: 5744 >A003 LIST "" "INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012"<
20.08.2012, 10:22:11: debug: 5744 >A004 CREATE "INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012/"<
20.08.2012, 10:22:11: debug: 5744 >A005 SUBSCRIBE "INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012"<

20.08.2012, 10:27:13: debug: 7662 >A003 LIST "" 
"INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012/08/2012"<
20.08.2012, 10:27:13: debug: 7662 >A004 CREATE 
"INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012/08/2012/"<
20.08.2012, 10:27:13: debug: 7662 >A005 SUBSCRIBE 
"INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012/08/2012"<

...and so on every 5 minutes until the full length mentioned above was reached
-------------

So for some reason, a wrong (increasing/recursive) folder name was chosen - 
possibly by the sent_subfolder plugin?

The user has following probably relevant pref entries (selected prefkey|value 
pairs from database):
sent_folder | 
INBOX.Sent/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08/2012/08
sent_subfolders_setting | 3
left_refresh | 300

I did not find reports of similar problems in the list archives. 

Who can help to narrow down/fix this issue?

We have SM 1.4.18, PHP 4.3.3, and a proprietary IMAP server (with 
$imap_server_type = 'other')

Thanks
Nino
