Details
Thunderbird makes use of nsDOMDataTransfer for its drag and drop. If you don't complete your drop within 5 seconds of starting the drag, information retrieved by mozGetDataAt seems to get corrupted.
Steps to reproduce:
Case 1: Within TB try to drag and drop a folder onto the same server doing it within 5 seconds
Case 2: Within TB try to drag and drop a folder onto the same server making sure you take about 10 seconds to do it.
Results
Case 1: Folder gets moved successfully
Case 2: Folder gets copied instead of being moved
If you insert a dump command to look at some of the data, just before http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mail/base/content/folderPane.js#365
something like folders[0].prettyName then for case 1 you get the correct prettyName but for case 2 you get undefined. You get similar results for other information you expect to be there.
mozTypesAt still seems to be giving the correct information out as does mozItemCount
Doing a QI on the folder object seems to workaround the issue.

I don't see this anymore so probably fixed somewhere in the last 7-8 years :)
