Ah, I see how it works now. I had seen that "store notes in inbox"  
option but of course didn't want them cluttering up my inbox. I  
assumed that not storing them in the inbox would still result in them  
being stored in a folder on the IMAP server. So much for "zero-inbox,"  
especially if you have lots of notes to store on a long-term basis.  
This is really crummy UI for people who use lots of Stickies and want  
to replace them with IMAP notes.  Crummy enough that I'm going back to  
using Drafts stored on the server for my notes needs. Krep.

Thanks.
