Is the file "Kit Wetzler" in your home directory?  All names are relative
to the home directory, regardless of what directory you may be connected
to at the time.

No, but it is in the ~home/mail/ directory, which I have changed the code to use. Aaaaaaah, I see, I must specify the entire path under that location to have the operation succeed!
I was trying to use it from the 'People' directory, with no imap-relative location as the mailbox was in the same directory as I was. bah
This works:
mailutil copy -verbose "People/Kit Wetzler" "#driver.mbx/People/Kit Wetzler2"


Thanks!
