Folder-Protect uses strtoul() instead of assuming octal which breaks
folks who have had:
Msg-Protect: 600
Folder-Protect: 700
in their .mh_profile since time immemorial. Using strtoul() in
auto-radix mode seems pretty bogus since users are used to having
the missing '0' added for them with program that expect octal input
(like chmod).
