Tim-Christian Mundt commented on IMAP-178:
------------------------------------------

Ok, that was probably a little confusing. The interface I was referring to is 
"org.apache.james.imap.message.response.NamespaceResponse.Namespace". Of course 
the IMAP namespace extension (http://www.apps.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2342.html) needs 
a hierarchy delimiter, but is is not really part of the namespace as far as I 
understand.
On the other hand as part of NamespaceResponse it models the response - which 
has a prefix and a delimiter, I think we should leave it.

> A namespace is merely a string in IMAP - a name. However, in James it is 
> represented by an interface containing a prefix an a delimiter. The prefix is 
> the name and the delimiter is the one that as passed around in James 
> everywhere, so it shouldn't be part of the namespace. For IMAP there is even 
> no need to separate the namespace from the mailbox name. Still - for 
> convenience - we should put a dot at the end of the namespace names.
