I think this problem shows up only with acl+listescape combination. I
fixed it for v2.0 now with
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/e77310eedfbb. Some of the other
commits before that were also required to get it working correctly. I'm
not sure if porting that patch to v1.2 would fix it or not, probably too
much trouble anyway..
