Well OS X allows you to do so.
I just created two folders with a "/" in the name:
1) on the Mac Os Extended Format partition
2) on the NTFS shared partition
Both work fine on OSX.
That is very, very, very weird... Folders with / in them are prohibited by UNIX and OSX is supposed to be a UNIX -- I can only guess they did this for compatibility with some of Apple's really ancient filesystems where that was valid.
But it is not valid to put / inside NTFS. You really shouldn't do that.
Maybe a disk scan it renamed it to some untypable characters which might be accessible like this:
If that prints the folder name and only the folder name, try this:

Hello,
Is it possible to make a file manager use different "colored folders" when browsing specific directories?
For example, if I open a gnome file manager and browse my windows share at, smb://192.168.1.101/z/ , can I make those folders appear green?
And when I open another instance of... (0 Replies)

I had to stop a pigz (parallel gzip) compression before it completed. Is the original uncompressed file changed/corrupted?
I was under the impression that the original file is not changed during compression, though it is deleted if the compression is successful. (1 Reply)

new
NEW(1) [nmh-1.5] NEW(1)NAME
new - report on folders with new messages
fnext - set current folder to next folder with new messages
fprev - set current folder to previous folder with new messages
unseen - scan new messages in all folders with new messages
SYNOPSIS
new [sequences] [-mode mode] [-folders foldersfile] [-version] [-help]
fnext is equivalent to new -mode fnext
fprev is equivalent to new -mode fprev
unseen is equivalent to new -mode unseen
DESCRIPTION
New in its default mode produces a one-line-per-folder listing of all folders containing messages in the listed sequences or in the
sequences listed in the profile entry "Unseen-Sequence". Each line contains the folder, the number of messages in the desired sequences,
and the message lists from the .mh_sequences file. For example:
foo 11.* 40-50
bar 380. 760-772 824-828
total 391.
The `*' on foo indicates that it is the current folder. The last line shows the total number of messages in the desired sequences.
New crawls the folder hierarchy recursively to find all folders, and prints them in lexicographic order. Override this behavior by provid-
ing foldersfile containing the pre-sorted list of folders new should check, one per line.
In fnext and fprev modes, new instead changes to the next or previous matching folder, respectively.
In unseen mode, new executes scan sequences for each matching folder.
