No. they are to get to the various mail boxes in your favorites. you can move
to the first 10 by hitting cmd 1 to cmd 0. Each box becomes checked as you move
to it I guess for the sighted person to see where they are in their list. you
are supposed to drag folders out. I now how to drag them in but dragging them
out is becoming a chore and a half.
