Click Accounts on the Tools menu. Select your IMAP account and click the
Properties button. Click the Advanced tab. Check the box to "Store special
folders on IMAP server" and verify that the names of the folders are
correct.
 
Thanks so much for your help Tom. I already tried that a number of
times...also tried renaming folders on the server but nothing worked! BTW I
have Windows Mail in my Windows Vista Business that I am using. There are no
accounts listed directly under the Tools menu but however I can reach the
Properties dialogue box for any account by clicking on "Accounts" under Tools
and then selecting the desired account from the opened dialogue box and then
click "properties" or I can also simply right click on the desired accout
from the left had side panel where all the accounts and their folders are
listed and click "Properties". Also, the "Store special folders on IMAP
server" is under IMAP tab on the properties dialogue and not under Advanced.
I checked all the folder names to be the same but to no use.

I really don't know if this is bug in the Windows Mail or what. Any idea
what else I can try or where I am going wrong if it's not a bug?

Thanks again for your time!

Sarah!
