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.
