[MlMt] Hang issue on moving mailbox error

I was attempting to move a mailbox with a VERY large number of messages and my aim was off, and it went into another mailbox. Almost immediately I tried to move it, and couldn’t. It was stuck processing those messages. Unfortunately I had also set it up so that those messages would go to Eaglefiler, and hence it was slowly duplicating thousands of messages. I could only get out of the loop by force quitting both applications. Restarting MailMate just restarted the problem, so I had to turn off internet connectivity to stop the Eaglefiler rule, which I couldn’t otherwise access. Ugh.

It would be wonderful for klutzes like me if I could get a “Sure you want to move this?” type warning on moving the order of mailboxes so I don’t accidentally drop another one into another mailbox in the future.

Thanks.
