Erm... why are you using "Drafts" for your Trash folder?
I think you'll find it's your mail client creating the folder. IMAP doesn't
need a trash folder, per se, as it can mark a message deleted, and expunge it
later. The only folder Dovecot will create is the INBOX.
Thunderbird allows you to specify what to call the Trash, Drafts, and Templates
folders. Perhaps you could configure it in-line with Outlook.
