Hi Barry,

maybe its related to the special 7-Bit encoding which is used for IMAP-Mailbox names ?

See:
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3501.html  Section 5.1 and 5.1.3


To quote:

5.1.    Mailbox Naming

   Mailbox names are 7-bit.  Client implementations MUST NOT attempt to
   create 8-bit mailbox names, and SHOULD interpret any 8-bit mailbox
   names returned by LIST or LSUB as UTF-8.  Server implementations
   SHOULD prohibit the creation of 8-bit mailbox names, and SHOULD NOT
   return 8-bit mailbox names in LIST or LSUB.  See section 5.1.3 for
   more information on how to represent non-ASCII mailbox names.


Bye,
Norman

I am using MySQL 5.5 and its encoding is UTF-8, I use the Chinese character to 
name the mail box, the name will be stored incorrectly. I read some related 
code and I can't find some special operations. Let me give you an example and 
maybe it is a little helpful for you:
&Ti1W,Q-.testchild.123
Plain text: 中国.testchild.123

This is very strange and this is very important and urgent for me.

Thanks

主题: Re: How to do limitation space of mailbox

Hi Barry,

Sorry to be not so responsive on ml, but your mail on space mailbox was still flagged as 
"to be answered".
I just answered it right now on ml.

For the second point, it's very strange. With derby and mysql, the mailbox_name 
is simply plain text. We simply do nothing special on database.
What is the default encoding of your database?
It will be fine to continue the discussion on ml.

Tks,

Eric

Another question, I just tested creating a new mail box in Outlook named as ASCII characaters 
(e.g. "testfolder") and I found the new box name were stored in the field 
MAILBOX_NAME in the table james_mailbox, but non-ASCII characters were as below 
like:&U9dUCVcwVAlOIk4JhD1W25b2VS5VRo+xmoJ4Up8Ta0xThVlHgrFfAoNJVAlY61knWSs-
Could you please tell me how decode the mailbox name?
