i edit by hand for two reasons.  first, i like emacs, and am not exited
by a new editor, which is essentially what in-wl folder list editing is.
i will do a simple m-a, but will edit .folders for any serious moving,
sorting, ...

not a chance in hell i can remember
    %mailinglist-12:corjb/clear@email.flobnitz.ac.uk:993!
to type it in correctly when adding a new mailbox on that server.

ymmv
