OK, I assume i can not create the "standard" folders in the root of
the hierarchy. The FAQ says:

"Courier supports the NAMESPACE IMAP extension which allows compliant
IMAP clients to automatically configure themselves so that the folder
namespace root is transparent. Submit an enhancement request to have
your IMAP client gracefully handle the folder namespace root."

I know Micrososoft protocol's implementations are a bit "special". Is
Outlook sufficient compliant? What does mean this? That outlook
(express) is autoconfigured to set "Root folder path" (IMAP tab in
Account properties, default empty) to "INBOX."? If so, how can this be
done?
