Agreed. This would also allow for "complete" backups of all emails and all 
folders. Currently there's a window of emails uploaded/delivered between the 
last backup and a folder being deleted that can never be restored.

I know David Carter implemented a patch for this in 2.2. I'm not sure if 
Wesley's patch is related to it or a completely separate implementation.
