Hello,
I’ve got a strange misconfiguration where the following command:
doveadm -f pager mailbox status -u spamutf8 'messages vsize guid' INBOX 'INBOX.*'
… fails with error code 68, saying that it can’t find one of the mailboxes. (It lists the user’s other mailboxes.) The name of the mailbox in question is saved to disk in UTF-8 rather than mUTF-7, but strace shows that doveadm is stat()ing the mUTF-7 path; the failure of that stat() is, assumedly, what causes doveadm to report the error status.
I’ve tried to paw through the source code to see what might be causing this but haven’t made much headway. Can someone here point out where the misconfiguration might be that is causing doveadm to stat() the mUTF-7 path rather than UTF-8? Or perhaps offer any tips as to how I might diagnose what’s going on? What causes doveadm to stat() one path or the other?
Thank you!

Mailbox should be stored on disk using mutf7, not UTF-8.

Hm. I have other users where the command above works, and the mailbox is stored on-disk with a UTF-8 name, and the stat() call is indeed referencing the UTF-8 name.
Is there nothing in Dovecot that allows for a variance?
