Sent emails not showing in Windows Live Mail "Sent Items" folder

Just jumping into this conversation. My properties dialog has five tabs. I'm using gmail.

Problems started with the Send/Receive issues in early May with update.

Folders were reorganized by the update,

There wasn't any update in early May, and updates don't reorganize folders. I'm going to guess that your account was affected by the outage 8-13 May caused by an expired security certificate on some servers hosting msn.com accounts. Does this ring any bells?

If it does, then one of the workarounds posted in these forums was to set up the account to use IMAP instead of the default DeltaSync. This uses different servers not affected by the outage. However, detailed configuration instructions weren't posted at the time for outlook.com IMAP accounts in Windows Live Mail. As a result, users ended up with duplicated folders at outlook.com - the ones that should be there (Sent, Junk and Deleted) and the ones synchronized from Windows Live Mail (Sent items, Junk email and Deleted items) that shouldn't be there.

It now depends on whether the account in question is still set up to use IMAP, or whether it's been re-configured to use DeltaSync. You can tell by right-clicking on the account name in the folder pane and selecting Properties. The properties dialogue for a DeltaSync account has three tabs, while that for an IMAP account has five. How many does yours have?

Hello Len323,

• When you said Outlook, are you referring to Outlook.com or Microsoft Office Outlook?

We'll wait for your response.

I have the same problem and switching off conversations doesn't work.

Ive tried signing out, exiting opening and signing in (the fix for incomplete distribution lists showing up in the to, cc and bcc lines).  Hoping that might also work here. No

I can see the sent items if I log into Hotmail on the web.  I have another PC that has an older Windows live mail and the sent items are there.  I bought a new PC and after a long sync to the folders on the MS servers I hoped that all the emails and history was downladed

I was hoping there would be a way to force synchronisation to update the WLM folders.

I think this is a buggy new version, lots of Outlook like features, but to clever enough to work properly! Like having to switch off a feature to see messages, and reload to do something as simple as send to a disti list. Shame

Any ideas, please on how I can see all my mails on my local PC, without having to go to theweb or fire up my aging old PC?

Thanks
