Folders with *** in UWC
Good Morning,
There is a folder in the UWC that has ***. If I try to rename or move it is says to me that it cannot be modified. It is a folder I a created so I can store certain types of messages. The other thing is that the folder does appears on UWC but not on my Outlook program. Every other folder does appear.
Thanks in advance for your response,
Gunter.

How did you create that folder in the first place?
There are certainly "reserved characters" that should not be used for folder names. the asterisk is one of those. . .
You MAY be able to rename the folder using the mboxutil utility, though you'll have to "escape" the special characters with the slash , like
/*/*/*
If that fails, there is a brute force method.Locate the actual directory on disk, and rename the folder. After you've done that, reconstruct -m is required.

Hi,Could you check the permissions on this folder using the mboxutil command :mboxutil -l -p "user/USERNAME/REGARDINGFOLDER" -xI experienced a similar issue and I think it comes from the permissions, but not sure, you maybe could confirm that !Thanks,Ben

Sorry, when you wrote, "***", I thought that was what you meant.Yes, use mboxutil to see if the IMAP permissions have been set to prevent you changing it.
