I have hundreds of Thunderbird folders. When I am moving an email/folder and the folder structure expands just as I drop the email/folder and it doesn't appear where you had intended it to go, how do you find it? I know some of the subject line. Ctrl Z is not an option.

If you right-click a message, you will see 'Move to "<foldername>" again', which indicates the last target folder for a Move operation.

Maybe using an add-on like Quick Folder Move would help avoid the problem with drag and drop.
