Hi,

I'd the same issue - Mozilla not being able to create "Sent" folders.

The solution was to set:

	altnamespace:           yes

in /kolab/etc/kolab/imapd.conf.template and restart Kolab.

 From "man imapd":

altnamespace: no

  Use the alternate IMAP namespace, where personal folders reside at
  the same level in the hierarchy as INBOX.

  This option ONLY applies where interaction takes  place  with  the
  client/user.   Currently  this  is  limited  to  the IMAP protocol
  (imapd) and Sieve scripts (lmtpd).  This option does NOT apply  to
  admin  tools  such  as  cyradm  (admins ONLY), reconstruct, quota,
  etc., NOR does it affect LMTP delivery  of  messages  directly  to
  mailboxes via plus-addressing.

Hope this helps.
Paul.
