+ The INBOX folder on most IMAP servers cannot contain both
+ subfolders and messages. When you create additional folders
+ on your IMAP mail server, branch them from the root of the
+ IMAP account's folder, tree, not from INBOX. If you create
+ subfolders in your INBOX folder, you will lose the ability
+ to read messages that exist in your INBOX until you move the
+ folders out of the way.
