Why have "sent" messages ceased to appear in the file? The inbox still works.

For three days no message is shown in the Sent folder, nor do messages sent show in draft or outbox. I delete regularly, so I must have space for these messages. Messages received are still shown in the In-box folder.

Grateful for any help.

Chosen solution

To check if Sent is now working properly, I will send more and ask for replies.

Please confirm sending messages works, as well as copying to the Sent folder. Messages should get copied to Sent. Messages should neither get copied to Sent/hgstead@shaw.ca nor to Sent/Local Folders.

How Sent/hgstead@shaw.ca and Sent/Local Folders have been created in the first place is beyond me, that's something you'd need to explain.

Your folder pane is still a complete mess, but you may address that in a separate topic. Or just leave it as it is as long as it doesn't bother you.

Thank you Christ1 and Zenos. You have been very patient with someone so ignorant about computer matters. Am sending successfully and the msgs are recorded as "sent". The sudden discontinuity last month is still a puzzle but I can blame it on Christmas, so not a problem for at least a year!
