In fact the problem come from a Outlook 2000 bug when it send the STATUS
command.
In french the Inbox is named "Boîte de réception" in UTF-7 "Bo&AO4-te de r&AOk-
ception" and it send the status request as:
IMAP: 17:58:09 [tx] 000C STATUS "Bo&AO4-te de r&AOk-ception/Divers" (UNSEEN)
Instead of:
IMAP: 17:58:09 [tx] 000C STATUS "INBOX/Divers" (UNSEEN)
All others commands are sent with the right INBOX name.
I have make a patch to correct it but only for the french language in
imapcommands.c from my last CVS update on _ic_status() function look for:
/* zero init */
memset(&mb, 0, sizeof(mb));
and add this:
/* check if it's the right mailbox name (Outlook 2K bug) */
if (strncmp(args[0], "Bo&AO4-te de r&AOk-ception", 26) == 0)
{
pos = strchr(args[0], '/');
strcpy(tmp_name, "INBOX");
strcat(tmp_name, pos);
strcpy(args[0], tmp_name);
}
That's fix the bug for the french version of Outlook 2000.
