in the meantime, any objections if i add this new section to
mh-folders.man, or something like it?
    Naming
      nmh folders can be given arbitrary names, with one exception:
      folders should not be given all-numeric names.  This limitation
      results from nmh messages themselves being stored in numerically
      named files -- allowing folders to be named similarly would make
      nmh slower, and introduce usage ambiguities.

Nice.

There's some old discussion of this starting with 
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/nmh-workers/2007-02/msg00003.html.
