Yes, drag'n'drop works. I was referring to the Copy To function in the pop- up menu. I've rechecked that, and you are right: Now the bottom level with the sub-folder 'four' is there, indeed. But it obviously takes Seamonkey a while to synchronize the menu with the folder tree. But in principle it works, obviously. I still find it a bit puzzling, that there is no real folder for the lowest level, but only an mbox and an index file, instead. Apart from that, it seems that I have been mis-informed in several respects. I apologise, as my intent was never to cause confusion. As it turns out, I am the only one, who was confused. ;) So thank you guys, for your valuable time, and clearing these things up --- much appreciated! You almost convinced me to return to Seamonkey... ;), if not two little snags I found in Lightning finally prevent me from switching, but that's a different story.
