Imap-configuration -> language problems with folders

[MisterJox]

I have a webmail (spray.se) that I'd like to synk to outlook 2007 and since I
want to sync folders as well as mail I have gotten the info that imap is the
way to do it. I have included the smtp-servers for both incoming and outgoing
mail and a first sync has taken place. It all seemed to work fine but I have
come to realise that all the folders that contain Swedish letters (åäö) are
replaced with a "?" and these folders are not syncronized. I have tried to
change the tetters of them but that doesnt work. I do have language pack for
Sweden installed but I dont know how to solve this. Anyone that can help out?

This makes no sense. SMTP is an outgoing-only protocol. You cannot specify
an SMTP server for the incoming protocol.

What character encoding are you using?

You are of course right it is just my non techie traits shining through.
