The faq section on archiving says inter alia :

Tip: To avoid problems when (if) you change your Pine primary collection,
you may want to use a fully qualified folder specification to specify the
second part (the archive folder) of an incoming-archive-folders pair.

This seems not to be one of the places where I can use ^T to get a fully
qualified folder specification -- right? I'll have to look at one
somewhere else (such as in a filter or role where I've gotten it that way,
or by more abstruse methods when, for instance, I get a new local ISP). I
can understand your explanations of what one is, and I think even
recognize one when I see it; but finding that explanation again is often a
problem, and recalling it well enough to construct one, let alone
proofread it, is another. If there's a safe easy way, I'll use it instead.
