Windows 10: Custom "sent" and "deleted" IMAP folders for Windows 10 mail?

When I add an existing IMAP account, it automatically uses "Sent Items" and "Deleted Items" folders, alongside my existing folders. Is it possible somehow to change these to use my existing "special" folders? Thanks.

Windows 10 Mail App not using correct IMAP sent folder

I have the same problem and observed a sent mail message existing for about a second and then disappearing. It appears that Google / Gmail does not store any messages in IMAP/Sent or IMAP/Sent Mail. It appears Google moves IMAP sent message to its own
Sent Mail folder a.k.a. in:sent

The issue I see is Windows 10 Mail does not sync in:sent or I can not add this Google folder as a Favorite.

What is really weird is I have some Gmail accounts working fine, but one account that is having the above problem. Deleting and re-adding the account does not solve the problem. In the accounts where sent mail is working, sent mail messages are in the
same place as in my Gmail account is not work.

Therefore I believe there is a recent Microsoft Mail 10 bug: When an account is added to Mail, MS is looking at the wrong Gmail Sent Mail account (imap/sent mail) instead of Sent Mail (in:sent)

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Windows 10 Mail App not using correct IMAP sent folder

Hi there,

I'm trying to use the included Mail/Calendar app with an IMAP account. While setting things up isn't a problem at all, there is a really annoying bug. It seems that the App isn't using the correct folders already present on the IMAP server:

My mailbox is configured using the standard IMAP folders:

• INBOX
• INBOX.Drafts
• INBOX.Sent
• INBOX.Junk
• INBOX.Trash

This config used to work with Thunderbird, and also my Android Phone haves no problem using it.

Now, after setting up my mailbox using IMAP in Windows 10 Mail app it seems like the app is not using the right folders:

• Sent mail is stored within "Sent Items", instead of INBOX.Sent
• It seems that drafts aren't syncing at all - at least a created draft isn't showing up in the IMAP folders

Haven't collected more samples now for junk and trash, but there might be a problem with these as well. However, my biggest problem at the moment is the "Sent" issue...

So, what to do now?

It seems like the app isn't offering any option to config a proper IMAP folder mapping. The auto mapping isn't working correctly. Any workarounds? Registry hacks? Whatever?

Really crazy. IMAP folder mapping was possible in older versions of Outlook (e.g. 2010) and also Mozilla Thunderbird is offering such an option. Is it really true that the brand new Windows 10 calendar app lacks this basic functionality? To me it seems that
simplicity ("lets keep the UI simple, because we want also monkeys to be able to configure it") overrules functionality? Crazy...

Any hacks or workarounds? Suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Martin

This is totally annoying.
