  Hey,
I've understood that the courier-mailserver implements IMAP correctly and that it is the MUAs error, that all folders are displayed as subfolders of INBOX. What I am trying to find is a serverside solution for this problem. I want to know if anybody managed to configure courier in a way, that lets thunderbird or outlook recognize all folders in the correct way and choose the right sent and deleted folders from the beginning on. Is there some kind of autoconfiguring function? Every hint is appreciated.

There's nothing to configure on the server. The server implements the IMAP NAMESPACE extension, that tells the client how the server's folders are arranged, however it's the IMAP client's responsibility to use it. The server cannot force the client to do anything.

Last time I checked Thunderbird configures itself automatically, properly, and all folders are visible. I don't recall if the special folders get automatically set up, if not it's a simple configuration setting.
