Nothing explicit? I thought there was. Mark's intent is that it should NOT
affect the subscribed list, since he intends it to be exactly that: a list.
Many implementations treat "subscribed" as an aspect of a mailbox, though, and
for those implementations the subscription goes with the mailbox when the name
changes.
The problem is that what you really WANT is dependent upon the situation.
Take these two examples:
(1) CREATE PROJECT-APPLE
SUBSCRIBE PROJECT-APPLE
...the Apple project gets renamed to "Banana" by management...
RENAME PROJECT-APPLE PROJECT-BANANA
(2) CREATE PAYCHECKS-CURRENT
SUBSCRIBE PAYCHECKS-CURRENT
...the year ends...
RENAME PAYCHECKS-CURRENT PAYCHECKS-2002
CREATE PAYCHECKS-CURRENT
