Benoit Tellier commented on JAMES-4099:
---------------------------------------

+1 for making this configurable.

+1 for keeping '.' as a default.

However is it needed to be overly restrictive? I well see the next PR be "Hey 
please allow me to use '|' because GOOD_REASON and it had been anticipated"? If 
an admin touches this property he likely knows what he is doing....

> Currently, we use '.' as a constant hierarchical delimiter for mailbox 
> folders.
> We believe this to be a suboptimal choice and think using '/' would serve 
> better in general; however, changing the default is not desirable because it 
> would break existing deployments. For this reason, we propose to add a 
> configuration switch enabling to select a delimiter out of a list of suitable 
> options (only '.' and '/' for now, with '.' being the default).
> This might also aid with #3545, where '.' as a delimiter is identified as a 
> problem for JMAP as well.
