Poco General FAQ - Difference between folders and mailboxes

Q: I'd like to have nesting folders for my mail, like in Netscape.

What is the difference between a mailbox and folder? How do they function differently? Can you nest one or any inside another?

 
A: Folders can contain mailboxes or other folders, a mailbox can only contain mail (folders cannot contain mail themselves).

From the Poco help file:

You can nest mailboxes inside folders. Folders can contain only other mailboxes, they cannot contain messages.
