Not quite the same as this bug helpful info. Thanks. There is also a meta bug that lists many similar problem with unusual chars in folder/mailbox names: Bug 124287. I need to look through these too.

Reporter Mr. c:

I've made some progress on this but not there yet. You can now enter a folder name, e.g., ```guitar/case``` and it creates a single new folder ```guitar/case```. You can copy emails to it and open them and delete them, etc. However, if an email has an attachment the internal tb url is somehow messed up and it hangs. Apparently the format of the internal url is wrong and confuses tb. Don't know why as of now.

Edit: Also, you can create the folder```a/b```with another client and tb sees it OK on the main tb page. But any folder name containing a slash appears with a ^ in the subscribe screen, e.g., ```guitar^case``` and ```a^b``` are shown in the list of folders to subscribe.
