What Jim said, plus there is a mapping correlation between *nix and Windows.

The permissions on the 2008R2\AD needs to be set to allow *nix (probably root access from NFS, or whatever mapping is done) to read\write to that folder.

I had a similar problem a few years ago, I was getting the same thing, once Windows permissions was set to allow *nix to r+w the folder was no longer anon, it was seen correctly..

So this is definitely on the Windows 2008R2\AD side, but every environment is different, so it's difficult to say make sure folder XXX has rights.

You will also run into problems with Windows tech (they don't understand *nix \ windows mapping in NFS) so they may push back and say "permissions are set correctly".. which may be a true.. to a POINT.. but they just need to allow root access or anonymous access (for NFS) to access those folders as well.

This is an EASY fix, just not easy to describe the steps and folders that need to change.

Name
       rmf - remove folder

Syntax
       rmf [ +folder ] [ -help ] [ -[no]interactive ]

Description
       The  command  removes all of the messages within the current folder, and then removes the folder itself.  If there are any files within the
       folder which are not part of MH, they are not removed, and an error message is displayed.

       You can specify a folder other than the current folder by using the +folder argument.  If you do not specify a folder, and cannot find  the
       current folder, asks you whether you want to delete instead.

       If the current folder is removed, it makes current.

       Note that the command irreversibly deletes messages that do not have other links, so use it with caution.

       If  the folder being removed is a sub-folder, the parent folder becomes the new current folder, and tells you that this has happened.  This
       provides an easy mechanism for selecting a set of messages, operating on the list, then removing the list  and  returning  to  the  current
       folder from which the list was extracted.

       Using to delete a read-only folder deletes the private sequence and current message information from the file, without affecting the folder
       itself.	If you have sub-folders within a folder, you must delete all the sub-folders before you can delete the folder itself.

Options
       -help	 Prints a list of the valid options to this command.

       -interactive
       -nointeractive
		 Asks for confirmation before deleting a folder.  By default, deletes a folder and its messages without asking	for  confirmation.
		 If  you  specify  the	-interactive option, asks if you are sure before deleting the folder.  You are advised to use this option,
		 since when deletes a folder its contents are lost irretrievably.

Examples
       This example shows how asks for confirmation when the -interactive option is used:
       % rmf -interactive +test
       Remove folder "test"? y
