Gmail IMAP "sent mail" - Touch Diamond2, Pure General

Would anyone know how to keep sent messages in "sent" folder?
Using Gmail IMAP my messages get sent but can't find them on my phone after send.
On line all show in my Gmail account.

go to the options of the messaging, "message" tab and check the second one "keep copies of sent items in sent folder"

Got it selected but no messages stay in any "sent" folder

In Outlook it works like this, don't know if its the same with IMAP, but worth a shot
Menu > Tools > Manage Folders
Then select the foders you want to sync

+1 Was just going to say this when I saw your reply.
Thats how I set mine on gmail & IMAP.
Just note you cant choose 'manage folders' while it is connecting / downloading / sending mail so wait for it to finish first

mail2web Active Sync push email sent items problem

I have just signed up to mail2wb push service and have so far got my contacts sync and emails are working, Push is great but my emails are not saving on my device, when I check mail2web exchange online they are their.
Is this how mail2web setup works or can the emails be saved to device too?
My emails are stored on the device using mail2web, your must have something wrong in your setup I guess...
Inside mail2web control panel go to "Free Services" --> "Mail2Web Live" --> "ActiveSync Settings" and you can download a CAB file with your default configuration there.
I had the sms send me the link I will try again a report back.
nope still not working downloaded the cab to my pc and copied across and installed, I send a email from device it goes to the outbox and then dispears. But it is there in my sent folder on the web.
I thought you were talking about incoming emails... sorry!
For outgoing emails, you just have to "Menu" --> "Tools" --> "Manage Folders" and Check "Sent Items" because it is not Syncronized by default, that's it
ah thanks I knew it had to be a setting thanks pof.
I feel a bit stupid here but how do I set up my vario to access mail2web exchange?
I've signed up and all seems to be ok, downloaded the CAB config file but nothing seems to have happened when I ran it!
Help?!?!?
Now when you hit the comm manager button, the email icon should not be greyed out anymore (because the cab should setup push email settings for you). Just enable directpush email with the email icon and you should start receiving emails.

MS Outlook Exchange users: Sent Items folder is empty

I've had my X1a for a few months now and is synced with my work's Microsoft Outlook Exchange server. I can send and receive e-mails fine and everything seems to work except after I send an e-mail from my phone, the message doesn't go to the Sent Items folder.
However, in my MS Outlook program on my laptop which I use for syncing (with WMDC) and is also set up with my e-mails through the Exchange server, I can see my sent e-mails in the Sent Items folder even when I send e-mails from my X1a. So I know there is nothing wrong with the Exchange server and it is a problem with the phone.
On my X1a, when I go into my Outlook E-mail options, I have the "Keep copies of sent items in Sent folder" checkmarked but nothing shows up in the Sent Items folder after I send an e-mail.
Any one know a solution to this?
you need to set up your sync folder settings. by default wm will only sync your inbox and none of your other folders. iirc it should be under tools -> folders and check the sent items folder to be sync'd as well. i don't have the phone in front of me right now, so this is from memory. play around with the settings and you'll see it.
Yes that's the way...
Inbox > Menu (right soft key) Tools > Manage folders> Check sent items.
Then just sync again.
omg you guys made my day! thank you!!!!!
i can't believe it was something so simple..
mods, please close

Touch HD Clearing out email Inbox

My HD deletes all emails in my inbox after 4 or 5 days, the sent folder does not seem affected. This is frustrating as I need to access older emails and would quite happily keep them on the memory for 6 months or so. I cant find the setting which stops the inbox being deleted....or at least allows me to do it manually.
Any help?
Cheers
I think this will do what you want:
Select the email tab then...
Menu
Accounts
Accounts
Menu
Options
Select your email account
Edit Account Setup
Next
Next
Next
Next
Next
Download messages:
All messages.
For me using Google mail:
Select the mail tab
Menu
Accounts >
Accounts…
Menu
Options
Google Mail is selected from the list
Send/receive schedule is selected from the list
From Download Messages drop down select All Messages
Done

Both answers above are correct, also it does depend on what email your using whether your syncing with exchange server or just POP3 mail
If you delete email from a gmail, yahoo etc it will also be deleted from your phone as it is synced, check your options and look at keeping a copy on server when deleted.
other option is to create a folder in your email account and copy paste emails to that folder

Gmail sent mail sync problem solved

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?

Deleted Gmails from the HD2 go to "Deleted Items" folder in Gmail and not to Trash

Deleted Gmails from the HD2 go to "Deleted Items" folder in Gmail and not to Trash
When I delete emails in the HD2 Mail Client (I am using IMAP with Gmail) they will go to a folder in the Gmail server called "Deleted Items" instead of the "Trash" folder, is there a way to solve this ?, thanks
Pretty uch the same setup as in the TP2 try this:
Mail tab, then Inbox, then Menu/Tools/Options Pick GMail Then Send/Recieve Schedule At the bottom Advanced Settings, Last setting : "When deleting messages" change from Move them to Server trash to Delete them off the server. click done/done/done, wallah problem solved

I did that test, but the emails did not go to the "Trash" folder in Gmail, they were just removed from the server.
Sorry, I thought that was what you were looking to do, as far as I know its deleted items or gone from the server, but that makes me ask, if you want it to go to trash which is basically wanting them to be deleted, Whats the reason for it to be put in trash?
