Description

### Apache Hop version?

2.14

### Java version?

17

### Operating system

Windows

### What happened?

While reviewing the metadata folders in the HOP project, I noticed that most metadata folder names follow the kebab-case naming convention (e.g., data-connection, pipeline, workflow). However, the Mail service metadata uses MailServerConnection, which is in PascalCase, breaking consistency.

Research direction

Inspect the metadata folders named in the issue, especially MailServerConnection and the kebab-case examples data-connection, pipeline, and workflow. Identify the repository path and any references to the Mail service metadata, rename the folder consistently, and verify that the project still builds and the metadata remains discoverable.
