I am running dovecot 2.2 changeset 16983:d925674c4329 on AIX. We use mbox files with the 
"/" delimter. I have an imap protocol question. When I do:

1 list directory1/ *
1 OK List completed.

Is that the correct answer?

If I do
1 list "" *

it shows
* LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "directory1"

I forget why I think that even with the delimiter, I should see some 
information about it. Is this a silly test that no imap client does?

Well, something like this apparently was used by Pine (and Alpine?) with mbox 
format, so this is quite a special case. Looks like it got broken by commit 
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.1/rev/8cdc7c13d6f2

I’m not sure if it’s really worth spending time on though..

Ok thanks. We are attempting to migrate from version 2.0 to a more recent version. I forgot to write down the reason the test was in the test plan. Version 2.1 latest revision showed this variance so I tried latest on 2.2 . I have not noticed a problem and I typically use alpine version 2.02 from Debian Wheezy.
