[Dovecot] User tries to move folder, then looses it

Hello,

Well, this is kind of difficult to explain. I have this user that keeps making mistakes on his pc and sometimes I don't know if I should believe her or not.

Anywhoo, this time round, she managed to loose  a whole folder on Thunderbird. She claims she tried to move the folder from a tree directory structure (see : sub-sub-folder) she created for herself to another place underneath "root".

Additionaly, she managed to mangle things up since she used on TB characters like

"/"  "\" and "&" . So thunderbird refuses to access those sub-folders on the folder tree and I cannot rename them (in order to have later access).

Here's dovecot info :
