Step-by-step guide
Reason: If IMAP does not know to which folder the deleted email should be moved, you get an error message. Below is your solution for the most commonly used e-mail programs (iPhone, Mac Mail, Outlook 2010).
iPhone:
Go to "Settings" -> "Mail, Contacts ...", choose your IMAP account, choose "Account Info" and choose "Advanced" below.
1) Make sure that the word INBOX (with capital letters) has been entered in "IMAP Path Prefix" .
2) You can also choose which folder you want as Trash / Trash. Then click on "Done".
Mac Mail:
1. Right-click on the mailbox where this problem occurs, and choose "Edit <name>". Or choose Mail-> Preferences at the top left and click on the account.
2. Then choose Advanced. With IMAP Path Prefix you enter: INBOX
3. Close the tab, and choose save if requested
Outlook 2010:
Go to "File" -> "Account settings", double click on the account, then to "More Settings" where a tab is present to choose the folder for deleted emails.
