Default Corrupt folder names

I have just re-installed Windows XP Pro on a machine that was configured as
Greek. OE store folder was saved on a spare disk while this was happening.
Once all was OK, I pointed OE at the store folder and got everything back.
However, the standard folders (Inbox, Outbox, Sent Items, Drafts, Deleted
Items) had gibberish names, as did the Local Folders.
I found Tom Koch's excellent & very helpful paper on File Corruption in OE,
and following his advice, I managed to get everything named properly.
EXCEPT for Deleted Items!!! Although I can see references in folders.dbx to
Deleted Items.dbx, the folder name in OE still shows as gibberish. Emails
that I delete go correctly into this folder, so it's all working fine, but
the name is not right.

Any ideas welcome!
