Ok, I want to enable this, but am curious about what character others 
are using...

I want to use a character that is highly unlikely anyone would ever use 
in a folder name... so, I'm thinking something like ~, or maybe ^...

So, what characters are others using?

Also, is \ the only character that would need to be escaped (the wiki 
page suggests that is the case)?

Last - to enable this, all I need to do is:

1. Add

mail_plugins = $mail_plugins listescape

to the main config, then

2. Add

separator = ~

to my namespace, then

3. Restart dovecot?

Thx
