names of mailboxes in sources are normally taken over from the imap 
server. unfortunately, different servers use different names for the 
same mailboxes. if you want to make sure which mailbox in a given source 
is for sent message, right-click on the mailbox and see whether mailbox 
type that is checkmarked is “sent messages”. It is possible to have 
multiple mailboxes with “sent” in the name under a given source, but 
only one will be the formal type of “sent messages”.
