fallback = "You are using the legacy option \"Move automatically to DeltaChat Folder\". We regret to inform you this option is deprecated and is scheduled for deletion in a few weeks, due to maintenance burden and rare use. We recommend to disable it. If having chat messages mixed into your Inbox is a problem, you can move to a separate mailbox by following this guide here: https://example.com/some/blog/post"
fallback = "You are using the legacy option \"Settings / Advanced / Move automatically to DeltaChat Folder\".\n\nThis option will be removed in a few weeks and should be disabled already today.\n\nIf having chat messages mixed into your Inbox is a problem, see https://delta.chat/legacy-move how to move to a dedicated chat profile"

https://support.delta.chat/t/4441 seems to be the best endpoint just now, but we probably want to have smth that at least shortly talks about reasoning and is related to the option already in the title, maybe "'Move automatically to DeltaChat Folder' gets removed, move to a dedicated chat profile".
and a real page has the advantage hat we can work on the text easier.

to unblock that decision, let's just go for https://delta.chat/legacy-move, which can redirect to wherever later
