So that means that it is not possible to changse IMAP server? As if servers are free to choose on-disk representation or separator as they wish trying out a different IMAP server will/might mess up the Maildir? > > To what extent is drag and drop supported by the IMAP standard? > > It is not.

What I meant to ask was whether the IMAP standard allow for MUAs and IMAP servers (isn't that a IMAP-server issue as well?) to implement drag and drop of entire folders (seen from a users point of view). I though there might perhaps be compability issues involved? This question is perhaps related to the first one. Regards Sigmund.
