I tried chinese in postfix+cyrus-imap
and in Outlook Express 5, the "Inbox" is still the one in chinese, but the "Sent Items" and "Drafts" folders which I saw in english IMAP
client become normal folders,
and there are another folder instead of them
in chinese in chinese name.


so, does IMAP server not provide a uniform interface?
or just the problem of IMAP protocol?
or just my fault to set up something wrong??

yes, the "Inbox" is good at all in chinese.


Inbox is the only special folder in IMAP -- the others are just conventions used by the mail clients. If two different clients (OE/English and OE/Chinese) decide to name them differently, there is nothing the IMAP server can or should do about it.
