there is no need for this patch as imap-uw has a runtime configuration
capability allowing you to change what you want without touching the source.

Please read

 	/usr/ports/mail/imap-uw/work/imap-2002d/docs/imaprc.txt

You can do what you want with following /etc/c-client.cf

 	I accept the risk
 	set mail-subdirectory Mail

please remember to read imaprc.txt on why you to accept the risk
in exactly above wording.  There are numerous configuration options
you can set.

Greetings
Christian
