How to create sent items, drafts and so on

[Sakuma, Koshiro]

Hi, Aki and Kostya,

Thank you for your feedback.  Well, I have set "auto = subscribe" in the
15-mailboxes.conf file.  Now, I changed Outlook setting of imap and I can
see Draft, Trash, Sent and Sent Messages folders and I can see the mail
files in there.  However,  I don't see mail files in the "cur or new"
folder where is under .Sent Messages folder.

1. The drafts, trash, Junk, Sent and Sent Massages folders are in English.
Can I change to other language in the 15-mailboxes.conf file?
    Actually, I tried to change it, but dovecot doesn't start due to
"unrecognized" parameter.

2. Maybe my configuration of 15-mailboxes.conf is wrong.  The current
parameter of sent message is as follow.
mailbox Sent {
    special_use = \Sent
  auto = subscribe
  }
  mailbox "Sent Messages" {
    special_use = \Sent
  auto = subscribe
  }

Regards,
