New submission from Matthew H. McKenzie <gith...@swellhunter.org>:

A mailbox (folder) need not be for a recipient and need not be the private part 
of an RFC2822 address.

Passing a value of "000 Bookings" to select() results in validation issues when 
the tokens are parsed as arguments and there are too many.

It would be a nice-to-have to accept spaces in the name.

Workaround is for a rule to be applied by a desktop email client such as 
Evolution to move it from the INBOX upon discovery according to filter criteria.
