You moved the utf7-encode down into -send-command, but that doesn't
work.  There are bits of the protocol that can't be utf7-encoded, so you
really have to encode only the group names, and leave everything else
alone.

Non-ASCII IMAP mailbox names work for me, I think, so what is the actual
problem you're seeing?
