Details

if you on a Cyrus IMAP server try to create a folder containg a \ you get an error. On both Software.com IMAP and Exchange it works just fine. on Cyrus IMAP I get: 134 create "INBOX.test\\test" 134 NO Invalid mailbox name is this a valid Cyrus IMAP bug?
it's a server design decision. this should be resolved as INVALID; nothing mozilla does will change the fact that you can't create a mailbox with a backslash.
