You create any folders named anything you want on the server using maildirmake, how the client chooses to use them is entirely decided by the client. You can create a folder called Template, trash, anyting you want, and the client could decide to use the folder called Trash as the location for Drafts, and use the folder called Template as the folder to store sent mail in, because that is 1000% under the control of nothing else other than the client. The exception to that is trash, which the server will control if you do an imap delete, and have it configured to store deleted mails in trash, it will copy the deleted item into the trash folder for you. > Is that ever possible?

Find whatever script you use to create the "templates" folder with, and remove that offending line from the script. It will be a command such as maildirmake Template On the otherhand, if your script isn't creating that folder, then it is most likely that your client is creating it when it doesn't find it, in which case you need to script your client in a manner to disable that. > > > Is that possible? if yes, how?

Its not created by courier at all, so you won't find it in the code.
