Of course, definition for "works" in (1) means the mail hierarchy is
kept, flags are kept intact (so mail that has been read stays read, mail
that has been replied-to stays replied-to) and all attachments survive.

It seems the script I mentioned earlier don't preserve mail hierarchy
(or I am doing something wrong) and flags don't survive.

But at least all the mail from the folder got migrated (the best of all
the performance I have seen so far from various tools ...).
