[Imap-uw] Easing restrictBox restrictions

[Tom Leach]

I need to ease the folder name restrictions imposed by restrictBox in 
mailboxfile() but I have a couple of questions.  First off, I have 
restrictBox set to -1 so all flags are set.
Does the restriction of "//" have any meaning if we're not using Samba 
on a Linux system?  I'm trying to see where that would be a path 
security problem but I just don't see an issue unless it could be a cifs 
one.
Second, we're moving from mbox to mix and an older (non-restrictBox set) 
uw_imapd, and I have some people with .. in their folder names.  The 
restriction of ".." is preventing me from converting those boxes (and 
the use of them by the owners) so i was thinking of changing
strstr (name,"..") to strstr (name,"/..") || strstr (name,"../") but I 
wanted opinions on what cases I was missing.  I've tried tossing in %2f 
to see if that would be parsed as a / but so far, it's always be literal 
(foo%2f..%2fbar instead of foo/../bar).
So, opinions on what I'm missing???
Thanks,
Tom Leach
