I think it might be best if I simply added some kind of “are you sure” warning when moving IMAP mailboxes. Naturally, that should include an option to suppress it. Something similar already exists for deleting IMAP mailboxes.</p>

<br>
- when somebody wants to drag a message “ to move please hold alt “<br>
Or<br>
- when somebody wants to drag a message “ to move please activate blabla “<br>
- “Enable edit mode for mailboxes” which could sit in the menu and desactivates it self after xx minutes</p>

<p dir="auto">I could perhaps imagine an edit mode, but I don't think automatic deactivation would work well.</p>
<p dir="auto">The more I think about it, I think a warning is the best way to go. It'll solve the problem of accidental moves and it'll give me an opportunity to warn about the consequences of moving mailboxes. I don't think most users realize how inefficiently this is handled when using multiple email clients configured with the same IMAP account (a recent <a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8474" style="color:#3983C4">RFC</a> tries to solve this problem, but that'll only be a theoretical solution for the foreseeable future).</p>
