We've got a lot of different IMAP emails clients which use differents
folder names for Sent,Drafts, ...
This could be ok but when they access the webmail, users are confused
because:
- depending on their email client, they end up with 2 folders ("Sent"
and "Sent items", ...)
- the folder doesn't have the same (it's often translated by the client
but the folder real name is english).
It's also not useful when one migrate to a different mail client
(although it doesn't happen very often).
A nicer solution would be that imap clients use annotation to guess
which folder must be used as Drafts,Sent,... but that's not the case !
I agree power users want to have control on everything (as I do), but
normal users just want things to be simple and to work.
