I'm currently migrating from a POP to an IMAP account and are moving my mails
using mozilla from the POP to the IMAP account. But is not possible to move (or
copy) entire folders using drag and drop or some cut/paste-menuitems.
My current workaround is to make the new folders manually, then select all mails
in the source folder and use copy or move to destination folder. But this isn't
that fast with a lot of folders ...
So it would be nice if you implement moving of folders between different
accounts. May be the problem occurs also with two POP or two IMAP accounts. I
haven't tested this. Of course it should also be possible to move multiple
folders together.
