Very surprise this did not come up sooner ...
I think we have a bug in our parsing code, probably by using the
strtok(list_response, " ", ...); on the last argument.

Hmm ... Usually Sergey and the other maintainers react quickly with a patch
but if they don't, I'll happily try to but my old RH-5.2 and take a second
look.  The code should be in mailutils/libproto/imap/folder.c(imap_list)
according the cvs hierarchy.
