We don't support special mailboxes outside of the personal namespace.  
This is intentional.

The namespace RFC (RFC 2342) explicitly states that these kind of  
personal mailboxes (e.g. Sent, Trash) must appear within a personal  
namespace:

    Clients often attempt to create mailboxes for such purposes as
    maintaining a record of sent messages (e.g. "Sent Mail") or
    temporarily saving messages being composed (e.g. "Drafts").  For
    these clients to inter-operate correctly with the variety of IMAP4
    servers available, the user must enter the prefix of the Personal
    Namespace used by the server.  Using the NAMESPACE command, a client
    is able to automatically discover this prefix without manual user
    configuration.
