edit /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf using vim/vi/nano (whatever you prefer)

Add the following:
namespace inbox {
inbox = yes
}

I can't say for sure this is the same problem you are having, but if you check your dovecot.log (/var/logs/dovecot.log) and you see the below error messages then try out that fix.
