Bug Description
Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird
In 1.5.0.10, renaming the folder "foo" to "foO", "fOo" or "Foo" isn't allowed; the OK button isn't clickable upon typing the new name. However, this can be worked around by renaming the folder "foo" to "bar" first, and then renaming "bar" to "foO".

myk, this was a local folder, not an imap folder, right?
my guess is we do that because on some operating systems (win32), Foo is the
same file as foo.
we should check what 4.x does (on win32 and linux)
