Description (last modified by damato)

Since YAM 2.4 now support hierachical folders, it would be nice to allow duplicate folder name. Since I could now classify my folder in category, I would like to organize them logically, like:

+ Mac OS X
| + News
| + Maling Lists
| + ...
+ AmigaOS
+ News
+ Mailing lists
+ ...

Right now it's impossible. It would be necessary to generate an hidden unique ID or use the full path reference to associate filter move function to folder instead of just the folder name.

By the way, this reference to an hidden ID would be far better and would be more flexible than name reference. When a user will change a folder name, it would not be necessary to change all filter associated to this folder.

Makes sense and is in line with what wew need for full IMAP usage later on anyway. We should really allow to have folder with equal names, thus differentiate between display name and folder path.
