Missing "sent" emails...

B

Bruce Cotton

After sending half a dozen emails to a group of four recipients, each
containing one or two small Word .doc attachments, I checked my ³Sent²
folder ­ and only found two of the 6 outgoing messages there. They are not
still in the Outbox, and are not in Drafts...

I then created a new Mail View called Sent Today ­ with the criteria Sent
less than one day....and the six messages show up ­ and are marked as Sent.

?? What gives?? Why would they not be showing up in my Sent folder? To add
to the puzzle ­ I have an auto forward for everything outgoing, that sends a
copy to another server for saving to another machine...and only two were
forwarded.

Any light would be appreciated :)

Under View look to see if you have ²View Flagged only².

Were the missing ones sent to mailing lists? Have you got the Œfile sent
mails in same folder¹ set for those lists on the Mailing List Manager?

I am getting problems with keeping some of my Sent emails. If I send
messages, sometimes I get an error that the sent message couldn¹t be added
to my IMAP mailbox, and it¹ll send it to the local folder instead.

1. I think this might happen if I spent time composing the message and I
didn¹t check email right before sending it. But still ...
2. ... Why don¹t the emails show up in my local ³sent items² folder either?
They seem to have just vanished. And I made sure I didn¹t have ³flagged
only² or ³unread only² checked.

Did the messages simply not get saved anywhere? I made a custom view to show
just ³sent today² messages, but the missing sent copy didn¹t show up.

Thanks, Darryl

I, also am missing my "sent" emails: the last one that shows is one I sent to
many ion Sept. 19 of LAST YEAR! I never really looked- - I simply assumed
they were going since the quote always came up "your message is on its way".
I do have the problem of msn dumping ALL my emails in the trash before I get
a chance to click on & read even one- - any ideas?? WILLOW
