Describe the solution you'd like
In the common inbox you cannot move a mail into a subfolder. This only works, when you are in the corresponding "direct" mailbox. It would be great if k9mail could detect to which mailbox the selected mail belongs and shows the folders of this mailbox to move it there.
Right now i have to look for the color of the stripe left to the subject, switch to the right mailbox and then move it to the folder, which is a little bit annoying.
Thank you and keep up the good work :-)

Research direction
Start by tracing the Unified Inbox message-move flow and how a selected message's mailbox and destination folders are resolved. Done means a message selected in the common inbox exposes the folders of its own mailbox and can be moved into a subfolder without switching mailboxes.
