migrating to the new server layout? This might be necessary to not
break the folder maintenance tasks.

Summary ⇒ maintenance actions move Inbox messages into folder named -sep-2004
Queue ⇒ IMP
source IMAP software to Stalker's CommuniGate Pro and today when
everyone was asked to perform the monthly maintenance routines things
got a little whacky. The users who opted to move last month's
sent-mail items into a folder named after September had all of their
inbox messages moved to a new folder named "-sep-2004". There was a
warning with some of the users where it said it had trouble moving ""
to "-sep-2004" because it already exists. One thing to note is that
our IMAP location prefix (Within WU's IMAP Server) was "mail/" because
user's IMAP folders outside of their Inbox were located in a folder
named "mail" within their Linux home folder. With the migration to
CommuniGate Pro we moved everyone's IMAP folders to the same level as
their Inbox.
The IMAP location prefix within the IMP server config is set to "" now
and it works when viewing mail when a user logs in and wants to see
all of their IMAP folders.
Any thoughts?
What we did in the meantime was disable the option to perform
maintenance and we logged in as the users and moved the mail back for
50 or so users.
