Select the "Save copy of sent messages in Sent Items folder" option To configure Outlook Express to save a copy of your messages in the Sent Items folder, follow these steps: Start Outlook Express. On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Send tab. Click to select the Save copy of sent messages in the Sent Items folder check box. Click Apply, and then click OK. Sent messages may not be saved in the Sent Items folder in Outlook Express

The instructions should be similar for Outlook.

Personally using outlook with a boat full of rules seems to keep most of my email problems in order.

I say if you have a few email addresses to really try using Email Clients like suggested above. With webmail you have to constantly log in to check your email but with Clients all the mail comes to you! That is definitely more efficient. I usually set thunderbird to also save a copy on webmail for backup. Very informative article, thank you.

Helen,
You have to double check with your ISP (the people you have your Internet service with) if you are allowed to send via other email mail servers.

Some ISPs will only let you send from their mail servers.

I have a number of web email accounts with sky, tiscali, yahoo & msn. I have managed to create a client account for sending and receiving sky emails via Outlook but don’t seem to be able to add any others which would presumably enable me to view all accounts at the same time. I have tried inputting the addresses plus pop and smtp details provided by each ISP but it’s not working. Is what I am trying to do possible and if so, do you have any tips?
