How to set junk folder in ios9's Mail?

In all other devices and computers all my IMAP accounts have folder "Spam" set to handle junk mail.

And ios devices keep creating a folder called "Junk" and you really can't tell ios9 what folder to use for junk?

Really? 9th version of the software lacking basic IMAP account settings?

Is there something magic that could be done in IMAP-path or anything else on the server side to guide ios9?

iPad Air Wi-Fi, iOS 9.1

The answer: you can't.

You can set drafts, sent, trash and archive, but you can't set junk.

Simple design flaw, time for feedback.

I feel like talking to myself, so I'll have to thank me...
