My apologies, you are right Paul. I was so intent on finding IMAP related
stuff that I missed the "Choose folders" option. That works perfectly for
what I want to do. 

One final question: it creates a "Folders Export EvX" folder inside a "Mail
Archive" folder in which I want to keep all the archived mail and it puts
the MBOX files representing the hierarchical structure of my mail folder
into Folders Export EvX. If I later export another IMAP folder (also with
hierarchical structure), will create another folder with a different name
inside "Mail Archive"? Or can I rename both the Folder Export EvX folder and
the Folders Export EvX.txt file inside it (I know you instruct the user not
to rename the folder, but I thought perhaps renaming both the folder and the
file inside it would be OK?!...). I wanted to check before I messed up
something.

Thanks again.
