folderfilter & nametrans

[tomasz.zok at gmail.com]

Sorry, I made a typo. It should be "import re" in the second point of
last section (not "import lib")

My example Python session to test your folderfilter looks like this:

    $ python
    Python 3.7.2 (default, Dec 29 2018, 21:15:15)
    [GCC 8.2.1 20181127] on linux
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import re
    >>> x = lambda folder: not re.search ('INBOX\.', folder)
    >>> x('.INBOX.Drafts')
    False


Regards,
Tomasz
