Well, that somewhat defeats the main advantage of this org-mairix
glue, which is that it does not ever matter which folder contains the
mail.  The containing folder is likely to be different at the time
when you are org-remembering (creating the link to) it, than when you
are later following that link.  In the typical GTD workflow, at link
creation time you are processing it, so it is in your inbox, then you
decide to defer the associated TODO, so you archive the mail
*anywhere* out of the inbox (so that you don't have to waste time
manually deciding where to archive it), and add the link to your TODO
list.
