I suggest when deleting a folder that contains subfolders ("_@dir" style)
that this operation fails when there are folders in the "_@dir" subdir.
Look at this:
. list "" *
* LIST (\NoInferiors) NIL INBOX
. OK LIST completed
. create test
. OK CREATE completed
. list "" *
* LIST () "/" test
* LIST (\NoInferiors) NIL INBOX
. OK LIST completed
. create test/test
. OK CREATE completed
. list "" *
* LIST () "/" test
* LIST () "/" test/test
* LIST (\NoInferiors) NIL INBOX
. OK LIST completed
Up till here everythings ok

But now we get into troubles:
. delete test
. OK DELETE completed
. list "" *

. OK LIST completed
# l -R /vhome/fl.priv.at/home/fl2/

-rw------- 1 55003 popusers 2048 May 18 16:44 test
Now we don't see the "test/test" folder anymore, but if we know that
it exists it can of course be selected.
. select test/test
* 0 EXISTS
* 0 RECENT
* OK [UIDVALIDITY 1021732758] UID validity status
* OK [UIDNEXT 1] Predicted next UID
* FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Draft \Seen)
* OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\* \Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Draft \Seen)] Permanent flags
. OK [READ-WRITE] SELECT completed
PS: Reply-To set to C-Client list, as that seems to be the appropriate
place to discuss everything regarding the UW-imapd.
