I presume that you are using Courier-IMAP with Netscape. Courier-IMAP ignores requests to create folders with trailing .'s, since . is the hierarchy separator, and in IMAP, a request to create a folder with a trailing hierarchy separator is defined as a request to create a new folder hierarchy, which is not needed with Courier-IMAP. So, it's not clear exactly what you did. Perhaps looking at the actual maildir contents would yield a more accurate picture. And yes, Netscape should not accept an explicit request to create folders that contain a hierarchy separator separator. -- Sam
