MS Oulook - Sent Mail?????

Dick Axtell - 17/5/17 at 03:45 PM

Hello LCB-ers, especially those of you who are Microsoft-expert .

I installed MS Outlook, after Win10 seemed to have confounded the Thunderbird email handler I had been using.

Now I want to check thru some emails I recently sent. However, I've now discovered that the latest sent email listed in that file, is dated end February.

So please tell me, how do I reach non-deleted sent emails in Outlook? All my efforts searching this only deal with deleted emails. Your advice will be greatly appreciated.

If its the same as Outlook 2010 etc then it should be in the sent folder on the left, just below drafts

Thanks for your reply, which showed an interesting point.

However, the point that I made was that even in my existing "sent" mailbox, the last email is dated 26 Feb. So what has gone on? How to recover emails that have NOT been deleted?

When did you install outlook in relation to the 26th Feb date. Have you been using this for a while prior to this date?
Do you have more than one email account setup in outlook, have you been sending out using another account by mistake and the emails are in that accounts sent box?

Sent emails will be in the deleted items if they are selected for deletion unless you hold shift and delete in which case it will be deleted permanently.

I would check to see if you have more than one account
