ACL when creating mailbox in IMAP utf7

[Etienne Goyer]

Effectively, imapd had been configured with "--with-auth=unix".  Is
there an alternative or a workaround, beside the obvious not using 8
bit caracter in mailbox name ?

Also, the ACL are not shown but does it exist ?

Finally, does that mean that it is impossible to have "username"
containing 8 bit caracters if imapd had been compiled with
--with-auth=unix ?
