Junk vs. Junk E-mail Folders

MS Outlook insists on creating a folder called "Junk E-mail" in which it stores, you guessed it, junk e-mail. Roundcube likes to use a folder simply called "Junk" for this purpose. I have been able to edit the /config/main.inc.php file so that Roundcube will used "Junk E-mail" instead.

Here's my problem: the junk folder icon only seems to display if the folder is called "Junk". Where would I go to change this so that it shows for "Junk E-mail" as well?

I sort of have the same problem. I have my server configured to place all spam into a folder called 'Spam'. This was set up long before I set up roundcube. I changed the roundcube configuration to use the folder 'Spam' instead of 'Junk', and changed 'Junk' to 'Spam' under 'default_imap_folders' in the configuration. The problem is that I cannot view any e-mail in this folder once this is done. It gives a blank list. I made a post about this, but it got no responses. So I had to go back into the configuration, change 'Spam' back to 'Junk', create that folder in my users directory and change their IMAP subscription by hand. This is in addition to the fact that the icon does not display for anything other than 'Junk,' like you said.

I did this which fixed my problem, maybe yours as well.

Edit the main.inc.php file so that the folder used for junk mail is what you need it to be. In your case this would be spam.

Delete or rename existing junk/spam folders and log out of RC. When you log back in, RC will create the spam folder for you and only then will it use the junk mail icon. At this point you can move any e-mail from your renamed folder into the new folder.

I did this, and it fixed my problem with mail in those folders not showing up.  Thanks!

It still doesn't want to display the icon. I even grepped through the entire RC config and replaced the 'Junk' syntax with spam in the localization files to no avail.
