Is there a setting to change so that sent mail ends up automatically within the appropriate account's sent folder?
If you go to the Advanced settings under a particular account, and check 'Put sent messages in (browse for destination)', it should present you with a tree of folders on the IMAP server, and you can select the one you want.

** You'll actually want this turned off for specific email services (like gmail) that will automagically put your messages in a Sent folder in your gmail account.

Edit: Oops... you had mentioned claws-mail, and I suggested a claws mail setting, but I probably shouldn't have hijacked this thread with more claws-mail talk. I just checked modest, and I don't see the same sort of setting.
