I think because if you just tried to move the files via the path in the
mail-directory settings, it moves the local files to the new location,
overwriting whatever is there (I guess).  And if you already have mail files
there, say good bye to them ;)  Where as if you just change the registry entry,
it updates it nice and easily, and stops TB! from moving files about.
