Details
Steps to reproduce:
Create a subfolder of 'Local Folders' with a long name (>=48 characters) and a (in the filesystem) forbidden character somewhere after position 48, e.g.
483456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678:
(48 characters plus trailing :)
Actual results:
Folder is correctly shown under 'Local Folders' but three files are created in the filesystem (with Windows DIR command):
<DIR> 483456789012345678901234567890123456789012345673430285c
1.405 483456789012345678901234567890123456789012345673430285c.msf
0 4834567890123456789012345678901234567890123456785c04d9c6
Note, that the mbox file is creates as a directory. Property of the created folder shows:
mailbox:///c:/.../TB-Mail/local/folder.sbd/483456789012345678901234567890123456789012345673430285c/
The created folder is unusable in TB. Removing the folder in TB leaves behind one of the files (the 3. file from list above).
Expected results:
Only two files should have been created.

Do you think it's caused by the "numeric" value or it works with any long string?

Can't reproduce it under Linux with 115 and Daily.

Might be a Windows problem. And no, has nothing to do with "numeric" value. That's only to quickly see the length of the string.
