Problems with dots in subboxes

[Paul van der Vlis]

Hello,

A user has a very complex IMAP box with many subboxes. He used subboxes
with names with dots and spaces in it and I use a dot as IMAP
seperation. But he did not have any problems, he said...

But now there is a big problem. His box "overig e.d." has been renamed
to "overig e" and in it is now a box "d", and in that it's empty, all
messages are gone...

Does somebody have an idea what can have happened?

He is using Thunderbird a long time, but now he has Apple Mail and an
Android Phone too, to access the mailbox.

With regards,
Paul van der Vlis.
