Hi there Timo, first of all thank you for taking your time for support! > Forget about mUTF-7 with Dovecot.

Thanks for clarifying this. > I suspect your shell is breaking the 8bit chars into invalid UTF-8. I > just tried and it works fine with me. Sorry, we got confusion here... apparently my (lousy) freemail provider which I use to post on this mailinglist doesn't send some special characters etc. unaltered exactly as I typed - so I made a console screenshot of the doveadm rename problem to make things clear. Please have a look here, it will reveal the doveadm rename problem (and that my shell is working fine): http://i.imgur.com/08wKji4.png > > To get things worse, when renaming the mailfolder in Thunderbird to > > "geschäftliches" it gets correctly written in the filesystem as > > "gesch&AOQ-ftliches"- but afterwards it's NOT found anymore in the > > dovecot index, e.g. when trying doveadm force-resync -u user it is > > not listed anymore (untilback-renaming in fs to the name it was > > indexed before). > Folders aren't indexed by default (mailbox_list_index=no) and > force-resync doesn't affect them. Are you saying > "doveadm mailbox list -u user" doesn't show some folder? I'm not > aware of any bugs related to this. No, the "doveadm mailbox list -u user" works just fine. BUT - I'm still wondering about the resync issue - As I understand the "doveadm force-resync -u user *" command rebuilds the index for the MAILS within the mailfolders? If so, how can the resync be done if the mailfolder itself is not found by doveadm anymore? > I'd need to get some more specifics.

For clearing up my point, I made another console screenshot with red markings to point out the problem (bug).
