Here is another one:

$ doveadm mailbox create -u 520000002149-0001 "INBOX.Umlaut ä"
doveadm(520000002149-0001): Info: Mailbox created: Umlaut &AOQ-

And again from the mail_log plugin:

[...] Mailbox deleted: Umlaut &AOQ-

Well, it used to be mUTF-7 everywhere, and now all the scripts that use
doveadm are broken. Also, it used to be so easy to go from a protocol
snippet to the filesystem and then to a doveadm command line. Just copy
and paste. But I'm just complaining ;-)

You mean there is a configuration option in Dovecot? I didn't know that.
