But I do accept the premise that the consequences of an unintentional

some kind of “are you sure” warning when moving IMAP mailboxes.
Naturally, that should include an option to suppress it. Something
similar already exists for deleting IMAP mailboxes.
What about this alternatives ?
- when somebody wants to drag a message “ to move please hold alt
“
Or
- when somebody wants to drag a message “ to move please activate
blabla “
- “Enable edit mode for mailboxes” which could sit in the menu and
desactivates it self after xx minutes
I could perhaps imagine an edit mode, but I don't think automatic
deactivation would work well.
The more I think about it, I think a warning is the best way to go.
It'll solve the problem of accidental moves and it'll give me an
opportunity to warn about the consequences of moving mailboxes. I don't
think most users realize how inefficiently this is handled when using
multiple email clients configured with the same IMAP account (a recent
[RFC](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8474) tries to solve this problem,
but that'll only be a theoretical solution for the foreseeable future).
