Is this guaranteed to be right?  I can't find dicumentation anywhere  
that says that Maildir folders HAVE to be in utf7-imap.  Because quite  
honestly that doesn't make much sense - Maildir is not limited to use  
with IMAP.  And/or a IMAP server might internally store everything in  
UTF-8 and only convert to utf7-imap internally when speaking IMAP to  
the remote client.

At a minimum, I think that this needs to be a configuration option.   
And given that this is a point release, the default behavior needs to  
be the existing behavior at this point.
