Comment (by axeld):

 BEntry::MoveTo() should not take care about that case, as it's too complex
 (and might take a long time) for that kind of low level API. A helper
 function would be nice, of course, though, but AFAIK there is no such
 thing, at least not in a private shared API yet. It's not that hard to
 write, though, but surely quite annoying (as you'll have to copy the
 attributes as well).
 You could have a look at the copyattr implementation, though.

 Also, why moving it at all? I don't see any reason to have two different
 folders for that, anyway. Putting the mail right in the final folder seems
 to make much more sense, and would completely work around the issue.
