It's fine for it to contain 8bit characters. But it look like we are  
missing some conversion. 8bit chars in the drafts folder don't cause  
any problems, in the sent-mail folder they do. It doesn't help to  
convert the folder names in conf/prefs.php to utf7-imap (which seems  
the correct solution to me), because then the drafts folder no longer  
works.
Looks like we are missing a conversion somewhere, or have one too  
much, depending on the point of view.
