This is on a POP account, not IMAP, and I am (obviously) attempting to create the folder locally. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Attempt to create a new folder with a '/' in the folder name 2. 3. Actual Results: Clicking OK to create the folder has no effect; doesn't even close the dialog. Expected Results: Closed the dialog, created the folder
confirmed on Mozilla 1.6a I can imagine that you cannot have / in the folder name because an actual file is created on the disk which reflects the folder name. If a / is not allowed by the user then they should be prompted with an error telling them that the / character is not allowed. is this a dup of bug 89986 ?
