I just realized that you can do "refile 1 +" and it works perfectly well,
that is: It does the only consistent thing to do and puts the message
directly into ~/Mail

That is surely a bug.

Actually it seems that most commands work fairly well on "+" but there
is one anomaly: The current folder always gets set to "+inbox", no matter
where you start from! That is: "scan +" displays the contents of
~/Mail but sets the current folder to ~/Mail/inbox

When I try

        scan +

it lists two messages, and complains about both of them.  That's
because I have two directories (i.e. folders) with all numeric
names.

I have been using MH (and then nmh) for around 16 years without ever
noticing this bug.  Perhaps I can go another 16 years without
noticing it again.
