severity 513116 wishlist tags 513116 wontfix thanks Hi,
Upstream assessment is following: > > * BUG: Does not allow non-ASCII chars in IMAP folder name > > http://bugs.debian.org/513116 (this seems to be valid bug for current > > version) > > This is the first I've heard of this bug, but getmail itself doesn't care > about this. The error shown in that thread: > > getmailrc: operation error (IMAP error (UID command error: BAD > ['unsupported folder name: At position 3: non-printable character.'])) > > ... that's not getmail complaining about the folder name, that's the IMAP > server complaining. getmail sent the folder name as supplied by the user and > the server refused it. > > So this looks invalid. Note that IMAP v4r1, rfc 3501, explicitly states that > the user's config is incorrect: > > 5.1. Mailbox Naming > > Mailbox names are 7-bit. Client implementations MUST NOT attempt to create > 8-bit mailbox names, and SHOULD interpret any 8-bit mailbox names returned > by LIST or LSUB as UTF-8. Server implementations SHOULD prohibit the > creation of 8-bit mailbox names, and SHOULD NOT return 8-bit mailbox names > in LIST or LSUB. Thus this is feature request and will be taged as wontfix.
