Btw. do you think it would be possible to alias the same folder under
multiple names?
I'm thinking about the "Sent messages" folder or the "Sent" folder or the
"Gesendete Objekte" all the same but every client uses its own name...

Creating the view is not a problem. Using that view is.
Remember that messages also need to be exposed through imap. Even if you
set up the views, that still requires some code changes, depending on
the way such global message views would be implemented.
So no: no easy way. The imap code really relies on the current schema.
That schema tries to enforce a strict relationship:
owner -> mailbox -> message -> metadata
Currently mailboxes are implemented as intermediate tables. Simple, but
not very flexible.
Google doesn't do it that way; there messages are in one mailbox per
user, and mailboxes are implemented as 'views' based on flags assigned
to messages.
But we could define a special kind of mailfolder, maybe in a special
namespace, just like we do now for #Public and #User for shared
mailboxes:
#View
could be used to define virtual mailboxes that circumvents the
message->mailbox reference
#View/ALL
#View/<flag or label>
I think that would be a very useful new feature. If someone wants to do
this, I'd be happy to review any patches.

Hello,
is there any easy waz to implement a view which shows all e-mails stored
in a users e-mail account like Lotus Notes does?
The only similar thing is a feature request for vFolders which is fairly
old.
Thanks in advance.
