RE: [bug-mailutils] folder names with spaces?

[Willem Jaap Zwart]

Hi Alain,

Sure, no prob:
directly to the IMAP server:
A002 LISt "INBOX" "*"
gives

* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Nescio
Ludens.Internet.Domains.Childcareafrika_org"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Nescio Ludens.Internet.Domains.-
Joker (registrar)"
* LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX.Nescio Ludens.Internet.Domains"
* LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX.Nescio Ludens.Internet"
* LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Nescio Ludens.Coaching"

(amongst others)

Using the folder_list:


Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12
Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12
Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12
Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12
Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12
Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12
Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12
Foldernaam      INBOX.Nescio    12

And to prevent the next question :-), a code snippet:
        status = folder_create(&folder,argv[1]);
  status = folder_list(folder,"INBOX.*","*",&folders);
  if (status != 0)
    {
      mu_error ("folder_list: %s", mu_strerror (status));
      exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
    }
        int i;

for (i=0;i<folders.num;i++) {
          printf("%s\t%s\t%d\n","Foldernaam",folders.element[i]->name,
strlen(folders.element[i]->name));
}


thanks for your help!
