Sorry that is NOT a solution Eric. The Spammers will merely use the other
delimiter... it also messes up WebMessaging as it relies on the - to move
messages to the bob-Deleted and bob-Sent boxes.
I have told Imail about this problem for years now... since 4.07 at least.
We need a REAL fix... such as not allowing SubBoxes to even be created
unless from the same Domain. This would allow Imail to still make the
SubBoxes however sending an email to it from outside the domain would reject
it not make a SubBox.
That is your fix... now please add it to 6.03.
