For most users using IMAP/POP to acces mail remotely the local mailbox is of
little interest, yet it is stuck at the top of the mail view, impossible to
remove. This is bad, because the main mail account is not at the top, making it
more difficult to hit with the mouse, and just being a generally distracting and
useless entry att a prominent location.

I see two possibilities for remeding this situation:
a) Make it possible to hide/remove the local mailboxes, possibly moving the
outbox out of the "Local computer" hierachy, since this is more likely to be
relevant to the user than the other entries.

b) Move the local mailboxes to the bottom of the mail view, so that it still is
there, but is not as distracting. (This is what Thunderbird does).

I think something like a) would be better in the long run, since I'm certain an
overwhelming majority of users is using evolution for reading remote mailboxes.
