You will need to make sure the prefs value for the sent_mail_folder 
entry is empty in your preferences backend.  Or try switching to 
another (valid) sent mail folder and then switching back to the 
default option.
Yes I switched to the valid 'Sent' folder (and had no errors) and then 
back to 'Use Default Value'.  I verified the git pull updated the 
files, and I deleted all the static cache files too.

Oddly enough if I select 'None' and save it, it is successful but it 
did not change the sent folder, it is still what is was previously.

I still get the same error.  I am using DIMP if that matters.

In Options->Personal Information->Sent Mail Folder the option "Use 
Default Value" does not work.
Try this.

I just realized there is a trailing comma in the prefs.php; this 
trailing comma also exists in prefs.php.dist.  Unfortunately 
removing the comma does not solve the problem.
This is irrelevant - trailing commas are perfectly acceptable for PHP arrays.

In Options->Personal Information->Sent Mail Folder the option "Use 
Default Value" does not work.  It gives the error:

The folder "#000;default" was not created. This is what the server 
said: IMAP error: Invalid mailbox name

I checked in imp/config/prefs.php and I have:

// sent mail folder
$_prefs['sent_mail_folder'] = array(
     'value' => 'Sent',
);

Which is the correct folder for sent items.
