IMAP folders with non-ascii names

IMAP folders with non-ascii names

[Loris Bennett]

Hi,

I have an IMAP folder with contains an umlaut.  If I set
gnu-group-name-charset-group-alist to iso-latin-1, the name is shown
correctly in the *Group* buffer, but I get the following error if I try
to enter the folder:

,-------------------------------------------------------------------------
| gnus-select-newsgroup: Couldn't activate group
| nnimap+XXXX.XXXX.XXXX.XXXX:Entwürfe: Mailbox doesn't exist: Entw&ACA-rfe
`-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other folders can be accessed without problem.

Is there some other variable I need to set?

Non-ASCII handling in the Gnus in Emacs 23 was kinda buggy.  I think
most of these problems have been fixed in Emacs 24.
