Well, yes, maybe it would be good if there was a warning like "you have
selected this folder as your sent-mail/drafts/trash folder, are you
really sure you want to delete this?" or something similar.
But keep on mind that you really can't prevent the deletion of the
folders - even if you do it in IMP a user could still use some other
IMAP client to delete the folders. I think what just needs to be done
is to make sure the situation (folder specified in settings is deleted)
is handled correctly - and I think IMP handles it already quite well.
(I didn't have any problems deleting the sent-mail folder even I have
selected it in identity settings. Same for trash folder. (We use CVS
RELENG version here, fairly up-to-date.))
