 Forwarding from http://bugs.debian.org/530671

 This bug seems to happen only with dovecot, which is using a dot (".") as
 folder separator, particularly it happens *only if* the subdirs starts
 with a dot (INBOX.subdir is not considered), if you have a look at the
 .muttdebug0 attached it is clear that mutt is trying to open "/boot" and
 not ".boot".

 How to reproduce:
 {{{
 1) open mutt, insert imap password, got the INBOX list
 2) c?
 3) select a subdir, press enter
 4) error message: Invalid mailbox name
 }}}

 This happens only with 1.5.19 and we also tried to release a new version
 with the following two commits integrated:

 {{{
   Prioritize the entered IMAP folder delimiter.
   http://dev.mutt.org/hg/mutt/rev/d6ee34f3ccaf

   Fix last commit
   http://dev.mutt.org/hg/mutt/rev/f76046ce4686
 }}}

 Unfortuantely this did not change the behavior.
 I'm setting the priority as 'normal' and not 'minor' as I do usually
 because this is an 'important' bug on the debian side.
