108910 - Cyrus IMAP: IMAP subscribe does not properly detect IMAP seperator

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 55774

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Todd Nemanich]

Using Cyrus IMAP for the backend server, trying to subscribe to mailboxes will
return mailbox does not exist errors. These mailboxes are listed in the
subscribable folders list (as returned by IMAP command list "" "%"). The problem
appears to be that the seperator is not picked up properly.
    I am including a partial example from my cyrus logs. First is the listing of
mailboxes.
47 list "" "%"
.* LIST () "." "INBOX"
* LIST (\Noselect) "." "user"
47 OK Completed
48 list "" "%.%"
.* LIST () "." "INBOX.Drafts"
* LIST () "." "INBOX.Sent"
* LIST () "." "INBOX.Templates"
* LIST () "." "INBOX.Trash"
* LIST () "." "INBOX.lug"
* LIST () "." "INBOX.perl-dbi"
* LIST () "." "user.jonathan"
* LIST () "." "user.tmp"
48 OK Completed
As you can see, INBOX.lug is a valid mailbox and the seperator is listed as ".".
Then when I attempt to subscribe, the following happens:
1 OK User logged in
2 subscribe "INBOX/lug"
2 NO Subscribe: Mailbox does not exist

The "." seperator is being replaced with "/", so of course the subscribe fails.

Verified as dup and this should be fixed already.
