I want to re-arrange, rename & create some sub directories below INBOX in my own mailbox;
if I use 'mc' from terminal to do so, can that cause me grief...?
Yes, you need to know the internals of your mail storage. Actually I do something like this from the command line with Maildir sometimes. Maybe you cause your client to redownload all messages again, maybe duplicate them or make messages inaccessable.
do I need to ?? re-index explicitly?? afterwards ? how to re-index ?
Maybe, it depends on the storage you are using. With mbox and Maildir Dovecot should detect the change and re-index itself.
or is that a really _B_ad idea, and, I should do it through say squirrelmail client ?
That's on the sure side of life.
