This was removed by mistake, I will put it back in, thank you! Doing
`mkdir -p /home/edd/Mail/{cur,new,tmp}` would be a dirty workaround but
would give you an empty root mailbox.

Perhaps the parsing threads panic on something, can you run

`cargo run 2> debug.log` (that is, on debug mode, not release)

and reply with the log?
