Here's what I use to create, subscribe and deliver to a Spam folder:

if (/^X-Spam-Status: *Yes/:h)
{
  #Create SPAM IMAP folder if they don't have one
  `test -d $MAILDIR/.Spam`
  if( $RETURNCODE == 1 )
  {
    `/usr/lib/courier/bin/maildirmake -f Spam $MAILDIR`
    `echo INBOX.Spam >> $MAILDIR/courierimapsubscribed`
  }
  exception {
    to "$MAILDIR/.Spam/"
    }
}
