Sebb commented on NET-601:
--------------------------
It looks as though Domino wants backslashes to be doubled if they are in a
quoted string.
{code}
Presis\Done - works
"Precis\Done" - fails
"Presis\\Done" - works
{code}
(Of course in Java you have to double-up the backslashes in strings)
This may be a bug in IBM Domino - it certainly seems odd to have to do this.
However Thunderbird obviously does it; this could either be a specific
workround for Domino, or maybe it really is a requirement of the IMAP standard.
It would be useful to know which.
In the meantime it is of course possible to work round the issue in user code.

> Partial response from LIST:

> AAAB LIST "" "*"
> * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "\\" "Backup log"
> * LIST (\Noinferiors \HasNoChildren) "\\" Inbox

> Trying to select Presis\Bodø Industri fails like this
> AAAB SELECT "Presis\Bod&APg- Industri"
> AAAB NO SELECT failure, cannot select mailbox: Folder not found in IMAP name
> space
> And trying to select Presis\id filer fails like this
> AAAB SELECT "Presis\id filer"
> AAAB NO SELECT failure, cannot select mailbox: Folder not found in IMAP name
> space
> So far it seems like select fails when folder has more than one:
> * none US-ASCII
> * space
> * sub-folder separator
