I have a Yahoo email address, and send mail using smtp.sprintpcs. My sent mail is saved in sent items, just like on a computer. But with the dropping of Sprint's email approaching, I set up my account again using the "automatically get settings" feature (called something like that). Mail comes and goes fine, but my sent items aren't saved on my Mogul, even though the box is checked to save a copy. However, a copy is saved on Yahoo mail online, in a folder called "Sent Items" which is different than the usual "Sent" box, which is where items are saved when sent from a computer logged into Yahoo mail.
I can't figure out why they don't save on the phone using Yahoo as the sending smtp

Hi there, I've searched quite a lot but there isn't much I could find regarding syncing with Outlook via activesync..
Like a lot of people I have a gmail account and download that via pop mail on my pc via outlook. I've also set up the same gmail account on my hermes. Now, how is outlook syncing meant to work exactly?
I can see that when synced, all my emails that arrive and are sent on my pc get copied to the "outlook" folder on my phone. Fine, I can view all my pcs messages on my phone.
However if I send any emails via gmail, these do not get copied to my PC's sent folder, and I can't see a way to get this to work. I cannot copy any messages from the gmail sent folder on the phone to the outlook sent folder on the phone. So I can't keep a tab or archive any messages I sent on my phone, on my PC.
If I use the 'outlook' account on my phone to send an email, it just waits on the outbox until I resync and then sends through my outbox email, right? Isn't that pretty pointless? I'm wanting the emails to be sent when I'm not ON my pc! So I can either send emails (but they won't sync) or get synced emails, but only if it sends when connected to my pc (pretty useless).
Does anybody have a way where I can send emails from my phone, using my gmail account so that it sends straight away, and the sent messages will be copied to my outlook sent messages upon syncing?
I realise that I could use an imap server to fix this but I don't really have access to one. I know google can keep a record of all sent mail, but there will still be holes in my outlooks sent items - I am looking for a solution that works with all pop mail accounts.
Thanks a lot!
FWIW, I usually get rid of my Outlook eMail account (it's so redundant ... I already received that mail in my OptOnline POP box) by first ensuring that the Messaging app is pointing to Text Messages, and then browsing to
HKLM->Software->Microsoft->Inbox->Svc
in a Registry Editor and deleting the entire key underneath that for "ActiveSync".
Then ... whenever I send mail (that I wish to keep a copy of) from my 8525, I BCC myself on it. Maybe there's a better method, but this procedure works OK for me.
Just remember (if you're gonna delete the Outlook Account through the registry edit) to make sure that Messaging is currently parked on a different account than the one you're deleting before making the reg change!
Hope this helps,

Here's the deal...I have three email accounts configured on my xv6800. One business account, and two personal. I can send and receive everything fine on ALL accounts, but no matter what account I send from, the sent items does not save a copy, and their is also not a copy saved on the server, yet the emails are going through to the recipients just fine, however they just dissapear after they go out, they do not stay on my device or my IMAP server.
Before you respond with the obvious solutions, please know I have already made the correct settings. Both the "Save sent items" box is checked as well as the "Sent" items box in Manage Folder (to sync) in the settings sections. Even with both those options set up correctly outgoing email is not saved on my device or my server.
What's the deal? It is setup as IMAP, not POP, so everything should by syncing back and forth just fine....? HELP!
THANKS!!

anyone? this is a common problem I found on Google, but nobody seems to have any answers.
So I've been having a few issue with gmail and it not syncing with the sent mail folder. There's been a few posts on here, but I thought I'd start a new one for a 'new' solution for those that may still be having issues. I solved it mostly through help from wacky.banana (many thanks) and a bit of good fortune.
Anyway I was following advice on here that once I'd set up my googlemail account on my HD2 only inbox was synced as default, so you need to go into menu from the inbox folder>tools>manage folders and tick the box for sent mail. What I've just noticed is that when you click manage folders and it takes you to the screen with the different folders with the check boxes, it says "sent items" rather than "sent mail". I've been ticking this assuming it was my "sent mail" folder, and so only been getting mail sent using the HD2, and not been able to access older sent mail, nor does it sync with sent mail from my PC.
What I accidently found this morning was that in the manage folders page, if you expand google mail by pressing the box with + in it you will now get a folder saying "sent mail". Tick this box and everything works ok. To some of you on here this might seem totally obvious, but to those of us new to winmo it's not, and I though some of you might have been doing the same as me
My only gripe with it now is that when you go to the sent mail folder you can't catagorise it by recipient, so everthing comes up with my name/email address. Does anyone know if there's some way you can get it to sort via recipient name?
Think I did a good job of the query in the title there.
My mail yahoo mail account saves my sent emails in a "Sent" folder while the Winmo email client is saving them to my yahoo mail server in a "Sent Items" folder. So I have to look in 2 places to find my sent emails. I want them all to go into the "Sent Items" folder.
Is there a way to alter where the sent emails are saved to on the mail server?
Not crucial but would be nice to know and my search didn't throw up any results.
I don't like to use the Gmail App, always used the exchange setting which, unfortunately, isn't working anymore. So when I started using the stock HTC mail app for setting up Gmail accounts, which uses IMAP, I had the problem of 3 new labels being created in Gmail! IMAP/Trash, IMAP/Sent & IMAP/Draft. Also syncing didn't work right! Sent mail from my phone went to IMAP/Sent instead of the normal sent. Deleted e-mail went to IMAP/Trash.
Solution?
Simple; go to your desktop Gmail settings, "Labels" tab > then check the "Show in IMAP" for Sent mail, Drafts & Trash. Then remove the unwanted Labels (IMAP/Trash, IMAP/Sent & IMAP/Draft). That's it.
Now Sent mail is synced correctly, moving e-mail is done correct. Deleted e-mails are moved to Trash.
