I have sent items on my phone that does not appear on my sent items in Outlook in desktop. I tried to look for configuration for sent items in the app, same thing with the desktop where you can set Outlook to save sent items, but I couldn't find any.

Outlook | Outlook for mobile | Outlook for iOS | For business

    I also have exactly the same issue. Tried everything except reinstalling the app.

    You can forward the sent email to yourself and it will show in your imap/inbox as well as the Outlook app inbox. 

    If you try to move the sent email to your inbox it will show in the Outlook app inbox, but doesnt show in the imap/inbox (via email app, desktop, webmail, etc)

    Weird.....

    Has anyone been able to solve this problem? I’ve just noticed it’s happening to me too, but I don’t want to delete the Outlook App on my phone as the emails in the sent box are not showing anywhere else and I don’t want to lose them.

    Yep. That’s why I stopped replying through mobile. Unless I really need to. But still, super annoying.

    Yup - tried that too. 

    only way to solve is install everythibg anew. 

    it will then work again as advertised for some time. 

    Super annoying, particulalry the part where nobody is respondibg, let alone helping.
