[imp] Renaming the default mailboxes

It should have an effect on new users.  For users who already saved the
old value, they will need to change them manually via the preferences
window.

Should be all Horde/IMP AFAIK.

Possible, but I can't say without knowing what software you use.  But you
should be able to change it in Horde/IMP, and then create a new folder
with the new name, and just ignore the old one.

Ah, that explains your request. :)  Well, answer for INBOX still stands.
For the others, you should be able to rename them.  But, if your Finnish
words have any 8-bit or greater characters, that could cause problems for
some mail servers...  So it may not be able to be translated to characters
outside the us-ascii character set, for example.
