sabToSickBeard fails when folder_max_length is set to 32

Windows 7
sab 0.7.17
Sabnzbd is exceeding the maximum file/folder pathname length of 256 so I set folder_max_length to 32 now the sabToSickBeard script cannot find the files to move them in post processing. I have tried moving the folders nearer to the partition root to minimise the pathname length but it is still exceeded unless I set folder_max_length to 32. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Thanks.

You may want to go back to 0.7.16 until 0.7.18 is out.
Only 0.7.17 reduces the actual file name, which was not intended.
