i just upgraded my 2.3 installation to 2.4. I like to be bleeding edge and i want to use SMTPUTF8.

I came across problems with mailboxes that have german umlauts. when enabling "mail_utf8_extensions=yes" e.g. Microsoft Outlook gives me mUTF-7 encoded folder names. Also the folder names when list via openssl s_client are encoded in mUTF-7. Am i missing something or can i disable utf8 for IMAP (UTF8=ACCEPT) only, but keep for LMTP Transport/SMTPUTF8 from postfix to dovecot?

I am using mdbox format as storage, if that matters.

My namespace config (shortened): namespace inbox { inbox = yes type = private

#mailbox_list_utf8 = yes # also tried this -> when folder didn't exist before it would create a new one with utf8, no matter mail_utf8_extensions is on or off
