How can I see my replies in the conversation?

Currently, my inbox is set to see the emails as a conversation. However, I can't see my replies on the same email. Every time, I reply an email, it shows a "you replied on xxx" and I have to look for the email on my "Sent Items" folder which takes me time. Does anyone knows how to fix this problem?

    Agreed...absolutely tedious and counter-intuitive user interface. I wish I had the option to switch to something else!

    Thank God,

    I thought I was going crazy.

    I'm just going to start routing my emails through another platform, Outlook is an absolute headwreck.

    I encountered this same problem when switching to "New Outlook" and using conversations. I could not find any setting for this, but during my search I accidentally enabled a view that showed my replies in the conversation.

    A little shocked at what I had just accomplished, I tried to reproduce the event in other conversations and eventually found that if I click the little arrow once to expand the conversation, I can click the arrow a second time to see my responses in the conversation.

    The arrow works like this; If you click it once, it will either turn 90 degrees and points straight down or it turns 45 degrees points obliquely down to the right. When it turns 45 degrees only, this indicates that there are more replies in the conversation currently not being displayed (your replies) and you can click the arrow once more to show them. When the arrow points straight down, it means you are currently watching all replies in the conversation.

    Hope this helps.
