However the above won't work for me because where you have ".mail_archive" I have a directory not a mail folder and the result for me is an error about the destination not being a mailbox.
At least I don't think it will work, what do you have in ~/.mail_archive? What does:- <change-folder-readonly>~/.mail_archive/.<complete><complete> actually do? OK, I understand what the <change-folder-readonly> command is doing and ~.mail_archive makes sense but what's that "/." doing on the end? However I have just realised that the 'y' command/key in index does almost exactly what I want as the 'other hierarchy' I want to go to is essentially my incoming mailboxes area. How do I find out what the full key sequence generated by 'y' is? -- Chris Green
