We've been able to stem the tide of ever-deepening nested inboxes by  
deleting them server-side than reconfiguring Mail.app to not store  
drafts on the server. I also suspect this may have been caused by also  
having a Blackberry talking to the same IMAP account, but with a  
different server address configuration.  Very weird. We'll let it  
settle a bit then see if he can re-enable sorting of drafts on the  
server.
