Why would shutting down the PMMail be any easier?  I can easily
accomplish the task in far less time using the process I cited instead
of closing down PMMail, opening the PMMail folder (which I do not keep
on my desktop), dragging and dropping the folder and then opening
PMMail up again.  Do you know something I don't know?  I just ran a
test and was able to create a new folder and copy and move the contents
(~1000 messages) of the  original folder and erase the original folder
in under a minute.
