It depends, but why using local Access, if I have IMAP ?
And surfing courier-imap-folders localy is habit.

Then you have not understood HOW "maildirmake" works,
because:
maildirmake sub $HOME/Maildir
create the Directory
INBOX.sub
then if you want a mailfolder do
maildirmake -f sub.folder $HOME/Maildir
which create
INBOX.sub.folder
and then it contains
INBOX.sub.folder/cur/
new/
tmp/
maildirfolder
where maildirfolder is an empty file. So all folderf which contain
the file "maildirfolder" are mailboxes.

Can you acces cyrus or uw-imap folders localy ?
NO
But courier-imap give you the possibility to acces it
and you should accept how it is done.

What has a local sheme to with IMAP servers ?
You have tryed to access ist localy...
The maildir is to access via IMAP.

I do not know, what you mean. Because I MUST access courier, cyrus
and uw-imap and there is no difference in the directories.
I see only the level where I am in. And if a Directory has a "." in
it, I see it as "the/point/directory/".
If you do not know, how to configure 'courier-imap' or 'mutt' (yes,
'mutt' needs different setings for "/" and ".")
For courier-imap:
set imap_delim_chars="."
For Cyrus
set imap_delim_chars="/"
But the standard seting in 'mutt' is
set imap_delim_chars="/."
