While this certainly fixes the problem of "bad" characters in UIDs, I am wondering if these resources shouldn't be using something like libmaildir's unique IDs.
Because even with this fix the resources will assume that the UIDs are sufficiently unique (which of course they should be but we all know that "should" isn't always sufficient).
