    How to save sent messages to IMAP folder

    Not sure what I did, but no longer get error message when saving. I run WL
    Mail under XP against HostMonster's IMAP server. Sent messages are only saved
    in my storage folders, not on the server. I can drag and drop, but this is
    not very elegant, is it possible to store directly on the server? I notice
    rules don't work for IMAP.

    Go to Account properties -> IMAP and mark "Store special folders on the IMAP
    server". Now, in the boxes below, you need to enter the names of special
    folders exactly as they appear on HostMonster.

    The ideas is, WLM does not know how e.g. the "Deleted items" folder is named
    on the IMAP server (can be "Trash" or "Bin" or "Deleted items", etc.); same
    with other "special" folders. You need to enter their names in WLM.
