It appears that mail is unable to create new mail folders anywhere other than in the local folder hierarchy (under 'on my computer')
If I can't use the 'account "shared"' construct then I can't go any further.  Damn it!  Does this count as a bug, feature or what?

New mailboxes created manually (and I presume via AppleScript) are created either "On My Mac" or under the heading of an imap (Me) account, if you have one.

make new mailbox with properties {name:...}

makes a mailbox under "On My Mac". I've never done it, but

make new mailbox at <location specifier> with properties {name:...}

ought to make a new mailbox under an imap account, if you can figure out what <location specifier> is.
