So when you send a message after configuring this, where does Mail put the sent message if you’ve checked “Store sent messages on server.”

Mail.app will put all of the messages you send to the server into the same folder because it has no idea that the server will handle “post+cmu.misc.market@andrew.cmu.edu” differently that it’ll treat “egwynn@andrew.cmu.edu”. To Mail.app, the process goes like this:
1. Write a message
2. Send it to the server to be delivered
3. Store it on the server in the-place-where-the-user’s-sent-stuff-gets-stored

So on my Mail.app, I set the “Sent Mail” folder on IMAP to be the folder used for sent mail by Mail.app. All mail that gets sent from my andrew ID through Mail.app gets stored there.
