Too late, but … Apples Mail.app creates folders named "Apple Mail", "Sent Messages" and "Deleted Messages". Perhaps the problem is caused by the spaces in these mailbox names.

A possible workaround: create IMAP folders with proper names, open Mail.app and select "Use this mailbox for -> [Drafts|Sent|Trash|Junk]" in the Mailbox menu. I don't know what the "Apple Mail" folder is used for, but it can't be changed this way.
