Tricky. I would say, "Other Users.ingo.INBOX" is case sensitive.

This, I would say, _is_ implementation dependend. Does
|
|
a CREATE "Other users.ingo.foo"
|
|
create folder "foo"? That is, is "Other users.ingo" a link to the root
|
|
of user ingo? And if so, who is allowed to create a folder there?
|
|
|
|
IMHO, if "Other users.ingo" is indeed a link to the root of user ingo,
|
|
it should behave so. That is:
|
|
|
|
> a CREATE "Other users.ingo.inbox.a"
|
|
-> Creates INBOX.a
|
|
|
|
> b CREATE "Other user.inbo.inbox.A"
|
|
-> Creates INBOX.A
|
|
|
|
> c CREATE "Other users.ingo.INBOX.a"
|
|
-> Fails, as INBOX.a already exists ;)
|
|
|
|
> d CREATE INBOX.A
|
|
-> Fails, as INBOX.A already exists
|
|
|
|
> e CREATE inbox.B
|
|
-> Creates INBOX.B
|
|
|
|
> f CREATE inbox.b
|
|
-> Creates INBOX.b
|
|
|
|
(Assuming the server is case sensitive.)

Let's see what Mr. IMAP protocol has to say about this... ;)
