It turns out that you cannot move shared folders to the Trash folder of
the Inbox.
The shared folder could reside on a different partition and it is not
possible to move between partitions. At least that is what I found
googling on the subject.

Why not copy the folder and then remove the original, that way it
doesn't matter where the folder resides.


I'm still interested to know if there is some kind of hook I could use
to call a script to update my database when a folder is renamed.
