[Dovecot] MUAs creating different "Sent" folders
While our webmail installation creates "Sent" as a Sent-Items Folder, Apple Mail creates "Sent Messages".
Is there a way of "mapping" foldernames e.g.
map "Sent Messages" to "Sent" map "Deletes Messages" to "Trash" and so on?

There's an RFC, but it hasn't been adopted yet. Neither by IMAP servers nor by IMAP clients. ;)

Not true. We've (IMP) had special-use (RFC 6154) support since August 2010.
Offhand, I know that serverwise Cyrus 2.5 supports RFC 6154.

what helps this, tb, outlook, apple mail, winmail and some mobile clients must follow , this is what people use, and it will take years after some of them might upgrade

TB has it on the CR list. Apple has their own X-LIST feature together with google.

hoping big spreaded clients will solve it soon perhaps a chance to block non fixed clients would be nice any chance ?, i see clients anounce their name and versions in debug log

Yes, it is a problem, but having a standard doesn't solve it and open source software is not a guarant to have it implemented either, unless you contribute the code yourself or get to sponsor someone to do it.
BTW: We'd contribute € 500 if Timo implemented RFC 6154 in Dovecot 2.1.

very cool !!!!,
as an add on idea, if it would be possible to identificate unfixed clients on the fly and doing some action on it, it might be a solution to allow imap at fixed clients only , others have to use pop3 then, not a solution everywhere but it could be implemented in some places ( i.e mine *g )

With v2.1 it would be somewhat easy to create a plugin that supports aliases, but each client would still see each others' Sent boxes and possibly synchronize everything twice..

open source standards :-)

would be nice yes, it was talked about a way to solve it via a plugin
and so on?
none mua have it hardcoded folder names, just diff defaults :(
Hi,
I know this might be a bit off topic, but having just fixed the problem on my machine, I though I might share it: on Mac OS Lion, with Apple Mail, you can change the system folders by editing the file ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Accounts.plist (path might differ with older version of Mac OS). For each accounts it has 3 entries (DraftMailboxName, JunkMailboxName and SentMessagesMailboxName) that can be changed to any value you want. Quite useful when you are IMAPing your account from different systems. Just don't forget to close Mail while editing this file, and don't do it if you don't have a proper plist editor.
This can be done as well in iOS, from the Mail settings, in the account advanced settings. But folders (Trash, Spam...) have to be created before.
Regards,

This can also be done via the GUI in Apple Mail.
