That's what I would guess. Theses chars represent umlauts so there is a 
chance that this user tries to create folders with umlauts in it.
That would also explain why this only happen once. We cache the folder 
listing and the tree building code is only called if there is no cached 
folder tree or on explicit reload.

Perhaps your server allows umlauts (my Cyrus doesn't) but c-client isn't 
able to handle it.
