Hi,

I have reviewed the changes you made; very nice work. Thanks.

I would like to insert one additional paragraph, to clarify a nonobvious consequence. In section 7, the second-to-last paragraph starts with "All IMAP servers that support "UTF8=ACCEPT" SHOULD accept UTF-8 in mailbox names". Please insert the following paragraph after that paragraph:

Note that when mailbox names comply with with the Net-Unicode Definition ([RFC5198] as described in the previous paragraph, they cannot any longer comply with the modified UTF-7 convention described in [RFC3501]. This implies that once UTF8=ACCEPT is enabled, neither clients nor servers may send mailbox names using modified UTF-7, they may only send UTF-8. (The same applies when IMAP4rev2 has been enabled. "A&-B" is an example that shows the conflict clearly.)
