So you have Maildir++ layout and you don't have listescape plugin?
Yes.
And you have namespace separator set to '/'?
Yes (which is the default, isn't it ?)
I've been like this in 1.2.12. The only thing I changed is that I commented out the global "location" directive to specify it by namesapce.
In such setup having '.' just isn't valid. All '.' characters in the directory name get converted to '/'.
I know, that's why it makes no sense to me that TB complains about a ".".
By the way, if talking imap directly (telnet), I wouldn't even be able to specify a dot in a mailbox name in command, right ? I guess that would be interpreted as a hierarchy separator. So this TB message is really strange.
If on filesystem you have .GVV-tangy.GVV/, that shows up to client as "GVV-tangy/GVV". There should be no '.' anywhere.
Exactly.
You could enable rawlog to see what the clients are trying to do. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Debugging/Rawlog
Should I restart dovecot or just a SIGHUP ?
My other questions remains :
. can we revert from 2.0.8 to 1.2.12 (just in case) ?
. is there, between 1.2.12 and 2.0.8 some noticeable behavior regarding mailbox name encoding ?
