Hmm....
I wonder if we should maybe better store the mailbox name as the "real"
name and do the UTF7 stuff on the fligh in the imap processing layer..
WDYT ?

Hi,
I tried to create some mailboxes with special caracters with james
(linux utf-8), reading them from thunderbird (windows-7) with chinese
and french special caracters.
thunderbird side, everything's fine: I create and folders are show fine:
INBOX.teeeèèèt{}ùµ
INBOX.中国
When I select in database, it gives indeed some weird info:
INBOX.&Ti1W,Q-
INBOX.&Ti1W,Q-.test
As Norman mentioned it, it probably due to 7-bit encoding.
But everything's fine client side, so we should consider this as a
"by-design" ?
Tks,

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.

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

Hi Eric, in James V3, I want to know how to limit space of mailbox
for one user. Could you please help me?
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?
Thanks a lot. Sorry for borthering you, I can't get help from ML.
