Filter sending emails to folder with gibberish name

[refugeindhamma]

I set up a filter to move emails with a certain email address to a folder with Chinese characters "华文课程" which was already created. However, when emails arrive, they get sent to a new folder with gibberish name "&U05lh4v+egs-". I have tried to delete and redo the filter and it's the same result.

Roundcube (our webmail provider) seems to have an encoding bug for mailbox names in filters. I will probably need to open an issue on their tracker to fix it, but for the moment you can manually fix it:

• Go to Settings -> Filters -> Actions -> Edit filter set
• You will see a textbox containing text versions of all your rules. Find where it says fileinto "&U05lh4v+egs-"; and replace it with fileinto "华文课程". Hit Save.
• It should now file into the correct mailbox. The UI will probably show the name wrong though.

Thanks. This method seems to work. The email is going to the correct folder and the name retains the original chinese characters.
