how do I get rid of the "Archive" and "Spam" IMAP folders? I delete them via webmail but they come right back. I don't want these folders taking up screen real estate when neither I nor anyone I have ever heard of uses these folders.

then we should file a complaint with cpanel, since they are creating folders and using space without permission or reason.  They also should inform customers that they cannot be deleted, instead of letting customers delete them just to have the worthless things be recreated.

Hi Troy,

Thanks for posting your question regarding deleting the Archive and Spam IMAP folders. Unfortunately, this is not possible. They will persistently be recreated by cPanel (automatically). I do apologize for the inconvenience.

Best regards,
