I still think i'm having a slightly different problem, on NT machine i don't see 
a folder created at all (opposite to  displaying a name as dots as discribed in 
bug # 29543) and in my case the is a duplicate account under the same hierarcy 
created after Ok'ing a dlgbox to enter a name for a new folder. I'll remove the 
resolution duplicated for you to reconsider

Marina, what Ja chars did you use for the folder name?
If the folder name contains 0x5c char, that will cause the problem you described.
Please see bug #29546.

I think local folder creation for double-byte chacacters has not been 
implemented so the behavior is unpredictable.
Reassign to putterman.
