I have a (mbox/IMAP) directory under my mail directory with these permissions:

drwxrws--- 4 tlhackque mail 4096 Dec 1 10:34 Vendors/

It contains a subdirectory:

-rw-rw---- 1 thlackque mail 84805345 Dec 1 10:34 Vendors/AVendor

If I try to rename the AVendor folder (client is Thunderbird 17.0), I get this error:

 Unable to rename across conflicting directory permisssions

If I chmod g-s Vendors, the RENAME command succeeds.

Where are you renaming it to and what permissions that directory has? I can't seem to easily reproduce this.
