This is really a Mitel bug in my opinion. IMAP servers have the capability to report which directory all mail folders are located in. The problem is mitel didn't rebuild (in the case of the IMAP server used by mitel it actually requires a re-compile) the IMAP server to set the proper mail directory to ~/Mail/. If they had it would allow all IMAP clients to automatically configure themselves. Instead, all IMAP clients need special configuration for things to work nicely. :(
I wish this would get fixed.
