(Whiteboard: [user left Thunderbird])

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727) Build Identifier: version 1.5.0.8 (20061025) I am converting from outlook 2003 to thunderbird and am using subscribe to attach various IMAP folders. Folders that contain a / in the name eg. 'AIT Solutions - Vince Gonzalez - 22/9/06' cannot be seen until the / is replaced with a - (or I suppose other candidates as well)such as 'AIT Solutions - Vince Gonzalez - 22-9-06' Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create IMAP folder using outlook containg "/"'s in the name 2. go into thunderbird and attempt to subscribe to this IMAP folder 3. you will be unable to without renaming the folder in outlook 2003 Actual Results: after renaming the folder in outlook 2003 then go back into thunderbird and subscribe the offending folder can be seen. Expected Results: any valid IMAP folders from outlook shoudl be seen in the subscribe process of thunderbird
bug 124287 has a few items linked that mention slash, didn't spot subscribe issues though

Robin ? can you still reproduce the issue ? if you still can could you follow the instrcutions on https://wiki.mozilla.org/MailNews:Logging and provide impa logs when you encounter the issue ?
I have long since stopped using thunderbird. it just had too many bugs and was too hard to use with exchange, I have gone back to outlook.
