Steps to reproduce:

Create an IMAP folder.
Rename it by changing only the character case.

Actual results:

We will have 2 IMAP folders (one with the old name and one with the new name). The mails will be present in both folders in the same way.

If one of the two folders is deleted at that time, both will be deleted in the end.

If you restart Thunderbird, only the folder with the new name will be present and it will be automatically unsubscribed.

Expected results:

Have a check like for local folders (CheckIfFolderExists), and do not allow this renaming only with a difference of character case.

Indeed, this is a problem
