[plug] Maildir inbox problem

[Jon L. Miller]

Since the name of the new server has a different name, the ending of all
the mail has the old server name (ex: filename.sles10).  The messages in
the various folders once they were accessed came up as expected. They have
taken on the new server name but the ones in the inbox are not working
like the mail in the folders.  I've moved all the old e-mail with the old
server name out of the folder and the new email is fine.  What I'm looking
for is a way to rename the old email files with the old servername to the
same filename with the new server name (ex: filename.mmtlnx).
