please do NOT use 'translated' folder names

Expected behavior

The default folder names for important folders should be

• Drafts
• Sent
• Junk
• Trash

when you add a new IMAP postbox.

Actual behavior

Currently you are using the translated name, which is e.g. for German

• Entwürfe
• Gesendet
• Spam
• Papierkorb

am pretty sure that when you are using a different language than DE or EN, e.g. FR than the folder names would be used in the French translation. This is annoying to change those folder names every time when adding a IMAP account … It is OK to use the translation in the Description of the folder name usage, e.g.

Ordner für Entwürfe
Drafts

Steps to reproduce

1. setup K-9 with different language (Do NOT use English)
2. setup IMAP account
3. check folder names

Environment

K-9 Mail version: any version

Android version: 8.1

Account type (IMAP, POP3, WebDAV/Exchange): IMAP

There hasn’t been a stable release since my comment. You can check out recent beta versions (“pre-release”), though. https://github.com/k9mail/k-9/releases

Thank you for your answer, and your work. A lot of progress has been made since last time I tried the beta release, and the app is now functional in production usage. Turning off associated folder name translation a bit of regression compared to v5.76, but nothing too disturbing. If I rename folders on the imap server, it will break other clients, like Outlook on Windows and the webmail of the service provider, and some of them cannot be customized in the same way K9-mail does. “Outbox” refers to already sent mails on the imap server, and is not translated. The mails still to be sent are in “boîte d’envoi” that could be translated to “sending box”.
