Cyradm under 2.2.3 and mailboxes with spaces

Hi,

I am running cyrus-imapd 2.2.3 under RedHat ES 3.0 and I can't seem to
create mailboxes with spaces in them using cyradm. Under 2.1.15 I had no
problem creating such mailboxes.

<snip>
localhost.localdomain> cm user.new1
localhost.localdomain> lm user.new1
user.new1 (\HasNoChildren)
localhost.localdomain> cm "user.new1.test spaces"
createmailbox: Unexpected extra arguments to Create
localhost.localdomain> cm "user.new1.test\ spaces"
createmailbox: Invalid mailbox name
localhost.localdomain> cm 'user.new1.test spaces'
createmailbox: Invalid mailbox name
localhost.localdomain> cm 'user.new1.test\ spaces'
createmailbox: Invalid mailbox name
</snip>
If I use IMAP to create the maibox, it works fine.
<snip>
[root at imaphost root]# telnet localhost 143
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK imaphost Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.3-RPM-2.2.3-8 server ready
. login adminuser xxxxx
. OK User logged in
. create "user.new1.test spaces"
. OK Completed
</snip>

Can anyone shed any light on this problem for me please?

Thanks
Roland
