Change location of Drafts folder in OL2007

On my home laptop compuer, I'm running Vista SP1 with Outlook 2007 w/all
updates installed. I also have a computer at work that I has XP, with
Outlook Express. I'm accessing my e-mail through IMAP from both machines.
My IMAP has a Drafts folder (in theory, allowing me to access any drafts I've
created from any of the computers I have).

So here's my question. In Outlook Express, I easily found the option to
tell it to save all Drafts to the IMAP Drafts folder. How do I do the same
thing in Outlook 2007? I found the "Autosave Messages in" setting, but it
only allowed me to choose from standard Outlook folders, and not the folder
on my IMAP store.

To restate the issue, on my Outlook 2007 machine I want all 'drafts' saved
into the IMAP Drafts folder rather than the standard Drafts folder created by
Outlook (thus placing them into the IMAP store and making them accessible to
all computers I use to access this store). If there's no setting to allow
this, is there a way to create a rule that says "any time anything gets saved
in folder x, immediately move it to folder y"?

Thanks for your help!
 
Was this message just missed, or should I take your silence to mean that
there is no way to do what I am asking? It's fine either way, just let me
know. I'd really like to make this work if possible.
