Found the solution to #2:

Note the trailing slash.  This brings up an old problem:  3 years ago 
when I first installed IMP, I used "mail", not realizing how important 
the trailing slash was.  It wasn't until users report mailboxes like 
"mailsent", rather than "mail/sent" that I realized the problem.
