I don't know which server you are using and how broken it is. Apple
changed IMAP servers several times. Current MacOS X version includes Cyrus
IMAP and it should work correctly. Other servers used in MacOS X are good
only for smaller mailboxes and might break on complex SquirrelMail IMAP
operations.

Folder names are controlled with four settings in 'Folder Defaults' menu
section.

1.  Default Folder Prefix
3.  Trash Folder
4.  Sent Folder
5.  Drafts Folder

Correct options depend on your IMAP server's namespace. On simple IMAP
servers you can set it to

1.  Default Folder Prefix         :
3.  Trash Folder                  : Deleted Items
4.  Sent Folder                   : Sent Items
5.  Drafts Folder                 : Drafts

If such setup fails with "can't create folders" errors, you have personal
namespace under INBOX and first option should be set to INBOX. or INBOX/
or you have some really wierd setup.

On Cyrus it depends on your setup. If you don't use public and shared
folders, settings can be set to

1.  Default Folder Prefix         : INBOX.
3.  Trash Folder                  : Deleted Items
4.  Sent Folder                   : Sent Items
5.  Drafts Folder                 : Drafts

If you use public or shared folders, use standard SquirrelMail Cyrus preset.

After you set things correctly, you will have to delete dublicate folders
created in other SquirrelMail configuration.

Please note that SquirrelMail uses shorter names for special folders by
default and your folder names are compatible only with some mail programs.
