I am experimenting with sending/receiving mail in 9front, and have hit a
snag. I save all my mailing list messages in nested mailboxes under "Dev",
e.g:

  Dev/9front - Where messages from here goto
  Dev/OpenBSD/tech

I'm unsure how to open these types of mailboxes using upasfs(4). I have
tried echoing the following to /mail/fs/ctl:

  open /imaps/imap.fastmail.com/personal@sgregoratto.me/Dev/9front
  open /imaps/imap.fastmail.com/personal@sgregoratto.me/Dev.9front

Cursory inspection of the upas/fs code didn't reveal anything to me
either.

I can't find the email now, but i vaguely recall being told to either mount or launch [n]upas with the folder name, i forget which.  I recall not liking the solution, but that may have been due to a misunderstanding.
