Didn't crash when I tried drag & drop, but didn't move them, either.

It probably wood be a good idea for anything which crashes the system.

Yes, I've tried all three ways. One of the tries lost a folder
completely and I still haven't been able to find out where Evo sent it.
But for what it's worth, I finally got creative, and instead of beating
my head against a wall trying to get Evo to do something it plainly was
not capable of doing, I sought a workaround. I moved all the subfolders
under Temp, the contents of the top folders to temporary names, then
set up the originals as if they were new, moved the temp messages back
into them, and the Temp-parked subfolders back under their proper new
main folders, so except for that missing one, it's all fixed. I hope :-)
One of these days I'll try posting again about Evo's Contacts section
being unwilling to follow its own sorting instructions :-)
Thanks again for trying to help.
