[MlMt] moveToMailbox keybindings w/ Gmail-hosted IMAP

Bingo, now it works in the sense of moving the selected mail -- so 
thanks for that. :) What I don't get (which isn't really a MM problem) 
is the 'Cabinet' bit: rather than moving it to 
...map.gmail.com/Cabinet/corr, it moves it to ...map.gmail.com/corr. I 
can live with that, since I never really got Gmail's Cabinet nonsense 
anyway -- IIRC, it was a sort of mongrel (not mutt :) concession on 
Google's part to lusers who *insisted* on filing their mail. Still, it'd 
be nice to get the syntax down.

Do I understand correctly that the nesting should be used for sequential 
keystrokes (as in 'm' = 'move to...' then 'c' = 'corr')?

Thanks again! Totally great to find a mail client under active 
development with a user community that uses (gasp!) *email* instead of 
that gawd-awful Tender-type stuff (http://tenderapp.com/).

Cheers,
T
