Hello,

In many webmails, mail clients, we can define a translated name for  
pseudo-standard IMAP folders like
"Inbox", "Sent", "Draft", "Junk", and "Trash"

In result, we got the same defaults folders for all theses things into  
the webmail and with our mail client (like Thunderbird for example).

But it's not possible with IMP.
In IMP we got only 2 choices :

Choice 1 => Use the translated name
With this setting, the folder's names in the UI are well translated  
but translated names are used too by the IMAP backend.
So if you use the UI one time in french and one time in german, IMP  
will create 2 IMAP folders : "Envoyés" and "Gesendet"
And when you switch with an e-mail client you will see 3 IMAP folders  
:"Sent", "Envoyés" and "Gesendet".
A bit confusing.

Choice 2 => Force the folder's name in the "pref.php"
Now all users will get the same folder for the webmail and the e-mail  
client but IMP will display them with their english name whatever the  
language you are using for the UI in IMP.

Can we just add, for all theses "pseudo-standard" forders, an option  
to map translated names to real imap folders ?

Benoit Poulet.
