276174 - Problem with changing Sent folder on an IMAP server

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(MailNews Core :: Networking: IMAP, defect)

Description

[William M. Quarles]

I recently upgraded to 1.7.5 and set up my e-mail account, which is located on
an IMAP server.  After creating the account, the default "Sent" folder was
attempted to be used on the server for storing sent messages.  The "Sent" folder
wasn't there, so Mozilla created it.  I opted to change it to the folder where
my sent messages are actually stored, which is "sent-mail."  However, once the
folder list was redrawn by collapsing and expanding the folder list, but "Sent"
and "sent-mail" were marked with the icons for the folder that was to hold sent
messages, and Mozilla would not allow me to delete the "Sent" folder. 
Restarting Mozilla does not make a difference.  The website shows an image of my
folder list.
