Every IMAP server I've used has Sent as a subfolder of Inbox so I'd
suspect the host. I haven't used Outlook with IMAP before though, so I
wouldn't rule it out.

I'd like the sent mail to stored in the Sent folder on the server, but
when I try to tell Outlook 2007 to store it there, it doesn't see the
Sent folder at all (I can see the folder when I login to Webmail). As
far as I can tell, Outlook treats the Inbox folder as the root, and
only shows the Inbox and the subfolders of the Inbox in Outlook. I
can setup a Sent folder as a subfolder of the Inbox, but that seems
really counter-intuitive.
Is this a limitation of IMAP, or does the host have it screwed up?
