Hi Willem!

Yes, Balsa uses ~/.balsa/ to cache various bits of information,  
including aspects of IMAP messages.  I believe it's hard-coded.   
Your only recourse may be to use a different name for the  
directory containing your local special mailboxes.

You can in fact designate IMAP mailboxes for most of these  
special mailboxes--but Outbox is required to be local, so you'd  
still need a local name for at least that one.

HTH,
