create folders when connecting to new mail account with Outlook 2013, or have an option to create standard folders with account creation
Outlook 2013 appears to be unable to configure its folder settings properly when it connects to a new and blank imap account.
(It locally creates its own Sent folder on the top level and then isn't able to synchronize.)
Outlook 2013 DOES configure itself properly when the standard folders have been created by a less stupid program, like Roundcube or Thunderbird. (To fix Outlook after that, 1.) move the unsynced messages somewhere safe 2.) delete the corresponding .ost while Outlook is closed or just delete and recreate that whole account.)
It would help greatly if Plesk could have an option to just create the standard folder structure during account creation so Outlook can be used right away. That's probably easier to do than patching dovecot to create standard folders when the first client to connect is Outlook.

Thank you for your input!
Unfortunately, we have to close your request, because over the years it has not become quite popular for further implementation.
