[jira] [Created] (IMAP-330) Convert mailboxnames to UTF-8 before
pass them to the Mailbox impl
Convert mailboxnames to UTF-8 before pass them to the Mailbox impl
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IMAP-330
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAP-330
Project: JAMES Imap
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.2.1
Reporter: Norman Maurer
Assignee: Norman Maurer
Fix For: 0.3
IMAP use a modified UTF-7 to handle mailboxnames. At the moment we just use the mailboxname as passed by the imap client to do any mailbox action. This works but can be quite confusing if someone tries to lookup a mailbox via the mailbox api and just pass the "real name" to it.
It would be better to convert from UTF-7 to UTF-8 before pass it to the mailbox impl.
See http://fetchmail.berlios.de/Mailbox-Names-UTF7.html for some useful info

--------------------------------------
This is regarding "This works but can be quite confusing" - in fact if you have some special characters in folder name it don't :)

Wojtek Strzalka reopened IMAP-330:
----------------------------------
if folder name is passed in LIST command it's not decoded properly (below typical Outlook scenario)
a2 CREATE "X&-Z"
a2 OK CREATE completed.
a3 LIST "" "X&-Z"
a3 OK LIST completed. <-- no folders returned here
a3 LIST "" "*"
* LIST (\HasChildren) "/" "INBOX"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "X&-Z"
a3 OK LIST completed.

--------------------------------------
In fact it doesn't work well - try to create folder 'A&B' in Outlook - it will pass name 'A&-B' in CREATE command
