Fwiw, I didn't really like the term "mfolder" but that's what
mairix users are used to... Perhaps:
=item -o MFOLDER, --output=MFOLDER
Or is "mfolder" not that bad and we ditch --output instead?
(mairix uses '-o', so we match it there)
I never really got used to using "folder" to describe mailboxes
or directories. I associate "folder" with something that holds
only a few pages of paper in the physical world; not thousands
or millions of items.
