Hi Paul...  if I understand your comment, using Queue type on folders in
an attempt to allow re-editing (as in Send folder) would not work due to
"previous 'queue' type folder gets set back to 'normal'"...

>Incidentally, sub-folders of the 'queue' type folder inherit its type.

Other than inheritance, this wouldn't change queuing via the parent only 
or anything else, would it?  Argh... I'm going orthogonal to the intent
of re-editing of sent messages in non-Sent folders; and of the OP
question... [changing Subject]

Simply, would an enhancement to allow re-editing of sent messages in
non-Sent folders be viable, and worth opening a request?
