Convert mailboxnames to UTF-8 before pass them to the Mailbox impl
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IMAP-330
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAP-330
Project: JAMES Imap
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.2.1
Reporter: Norman Maurer
Assignee: Norman Maurer
Fix For: 0.3
IMAP use a modified UTF-7 to handle mailboxnames. At the moment we just use the
mailboxname as passed by the imap client to do any mailbox action. This works
but can be quite confusing if someone tries to lookup a mailbox via the mailbox
api and just pass the "real name" to it.
It would be better to convert from UTF-7 to UTF-8 before pass it to the mailbox
impl.
