That's it! Thanks for the heads up! I assumed that all the spool hash options only applied when you actually have more than one partition, which I don't. Unfortunately this is going to complicate my ability to use the excellent migration plan outlined by Nic Berstein on 2014-12-19. mailboxes.db will know about the spool files in their old, hashed location, which I'd like to get rid of, since all the mail resides on one physical partition anyway, so having it set up this way just adds unnecessary directory structures. I might end up having to use imapsync after all.
