It seems that there is no standard for folder names that deal with typical message classes such as drafts, outbox, sent, spam etc. At least there's no common sense on a naming convention that tells how client should handle this.
XLIST may deal with this in the future.
XLIST seems to be pretty proprietary. Have you had a look at LIST-EXTENDED instead? It's a standard and one would 'simply' need to register the required extensions to get a mapping:
"IMAP4 LIST Command Extensions" <http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5258.txt>
It seems to be capable to map the relations we are dicussion here. Something along these lines:
S: * LIST (\Subscribed \NoInferiors) "/" "inbox" S: * LIST (\Subscribed \drafts \NoInferiors) "/" "Drafts" S: * LIST (\Subscribed \trash \NoInferiors) "/" "Trash" S: * LIST (\Subscribed \sent \NoInferiors) "/" "Sent-Mail" S: * LIST (\Subscribed \outbox \NoInferiors) "/" "Out" S: * LIST (\Subscribed \templates \NoInferiors) "/" "Templates"
