Hi, I'm struggling with the encoding of my cyrus installation. I have a folder Calendar Partagé , which is stored and known by cyrus as 'user/pv/Calendrier partag&AOk-' However the same folder needs to be consulted by a php process, using Net/IMAP.php module. The default setting for this module is a special utf_7 + base 64 encoding (which seems to be declared by RFC 3501). If I try to access this folder using the module I'm getting an error : Error: Folder: user/pv/Calendrier partagé, [pear_error: message="NO, Mailbox does not exist" code=0 mode=return level=notice prefix="" info=""] Further investigation shows that the php module encodes the folder name to "user/pv/Calendrier partag&w6k-", which differs from the cyrus storage format. Manually setting the foldername to the storage format of cyrus does the trick. Is there anyone experiencing the same problem as I am? I'm using PHP 4.4.2, cyrus 2.2.12, Net_IMAP 1.0.3. Kin regards Pieter PS this is the encoding from php : <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> function utf_7_encode($str) { if($this->_useUTF_7 == false ){ return $str; } //return imap_utf7_encode($str); $encoded_utf7 = ''; $base64_part = ''; if(is_array($str)){ return new PEAR_Error('error'); } for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($str); $i++) { //those chars should be base64 encoded if ( ((ord($str[$i]) >= 39 ) and (ord($str[$i]) <= 126 )) or ((ord($str[$i]) >= 32 ) and (ord($str[$i]) <= 37 )) ) { if ($base64_part) { $encoded_utf7 = sprintf("%s&%s-", $encoded_utf7, str_replace('=', '',base64_encode($base64_part)) ); $base64_part = ''; } $encoded_utf7 = sprintf("%s%s",$encoded_utf7 , $str[$i]); } else { //handle & if (ord($str[$i]) == 38 ) { if ($base64_part) { $encoded_utf7 = sprintf("%s&%s-", $encoded_utf7, str_replace('=', '',base64_encode($base64_part)) ); $base64_part = ''; } $encoded_utf7 = sprintf("%s&-", $encoded_utf7 ); } else { $base64_part = sprintf("%s%s",$base64_part , $str[$i]); //$base64_part = sprintf("%s%s%s",$base64_part , chr(0) , $str[$i]); } } } if ($base64_part) { $encoded_utf7 = sprintf("%s&%s-", $encoded_utf7, str_replace('=', '',base64_encode($base64_part)) ); $base64_part = ''; } return $encoded_utf7; } -- --------------------------------------------------- Able: 1996-2006: already 10 safe years in YOUR company! aXs GUARD has completed security and anti-virus checks on this e-mail (http://www.axsguard.com) --------------------------------------------------- Able NV: ond.nr 0457.938.087 RPR Mechelen ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
