Realized two things after the fact.
1) I took it off list accidentally I think.
2) My question was ambiguous.

When courier webmail does a move (or presumably anything else that uses
those libraries for dealing with Maildir's) does it do a move as an
addtional hardlink with the same (or different name) in the new folder
followed by an unlink on the old one, or does it do a copy to new file (with
new name, inode, etc.) and then unlink/rm  the original?

Seems a lot more efficent than what I see now through outlook, but I wonder
if it would be possible / practical to write a MAPI to Maildir storage
provider...

I wonder what other efficiencies would be gained?
