Okay, i just did it again with two mailboxes under gmail but i had to do one 
differently than the other. With my Important mailbox under gmail. I interacted 
with the important mailbox, did vokeys-comma, used vo-keys to go to my 
favorites bar, interacted with the favorites bar and used vokeys-period to 
drop. However, when I attempted this with sent-mail, using the same steps, it 
said it had failed to drop on drafts. So I switched to vokeys-lessthan to drop 
to the left of the current mailbox and that worked. The other day, when I did 
my first addition to the Favorites bar, it failed to drop using vokeys-lessthan 
and worked with vokeys-period, so if vokeys-period fails, you should try 
vokeys-lessthan or vokeys-greaterthan.
