Yup, There is a section in the manual saying precisely that.

This is the right method to use.  (FCC is handled by mail-mode, which knows
nothing about VM's maildrop specs.)

The trouble may be that IMAP server, once gain, may be doing something
unexpected.  If you can locate the trace buffer and send me its contents, I
can check what may be going wrong.
