Ok, I just setup Outlook 2007 w/ my AIM Mail account (IMAP service) and have a problem. When I created the account in Outlook, the only folder listed is the Inbox. When I access my AIM Mail account on the web though, I have more folders:

New Mail
Old Mail
Sent
Spam
Recently Deleted

My Folders:
Saved Mail


How do I get Outlook to show these folders as well? I tried manually creating them, but Outlook just tells me this, "Cannot create the folder. Cannot create or navigate to the folder. You cannot create or navigate to subfolders of your Inbox when you have a non-empty Root Folder Path."

I thought when you sync an IMAP account for the first time, it automatically makes changes in your email program to reflect all changes in your actual account online (folders, emails, etc.)?
