Save messages in representee's sent items folder (Outlook online mode) #193

Description

@p-try

When working with shared mailboxes it is often required to save sent messages in the Sent Items folder of that mailbox rather than the sending user's personal one. This functionality is already wonderfully implemented in Grommunio Web by the setting zarafa/v1/contexts/mail/delegate_sent_items_style which can take the values both, delegate or representee.

There is a workaround for Outlook that involves a registry key DelegateSentItemsStyle. However, this only works in Exchange cache mode. In online mode, the server is responsible for moving the messages.

An obvious way to implement this would be for Gromox to look up the same settings key zarafa/v1/contexts/mail/delegate_sent_items_style in the sending user's mailbox, just like Grommunio Web does, or even move the whole logic into Gromox. Before suggesting an implementation, I would like to hear if such a behavior is desired at all? The settings are explicitly named "websettings_persistent" and the prop ID is PR_EC_WEBAPP_PERSISTENT_SETTINGS_JSON so I assume they are supposed to regard Grommunio Web exclusively and are not meant to be read by Gromox logic at all. Any comments?
