How to save sent mail in user secified folder ?

How to save sent emails of an IMAP mail account in user specified folder in
Outlook instead of the default "Sent Items" in "Personal Folder"? This option
is there in Outlook Express in the "Advanced" tab in the E-mail account
properties, but not there in Outlook.

I have this same doubt for saving "Drafts" of my IMAP mail account in my
IMAP folder rather than the default folder in "Personal Folder".

Use an after sending rule to copy messages to a different folder.... no on
drafts... you can't save them in another folder.

Just after i posted this messge I went thru 100s of questions regarding the
same issue. If Outlook Epress has that feature, why does the advanced version
Outlook lack it ?

Just like everyone else who posted regarding the same issue, I want it moved
to the folder and not copied. Isnt there any way to work around it ?

You can turn off the option to save sent messages in the sent folder and
use the rule to copy it to the imap server but if for some reason outlook
can't connect to the imap, a copy is not saved at all.
