Hello again,

Sent emails have disappeared from sent inbox. This issue has been for at least 3 weeks now.

I need all my sent emails that disappeared back in sent folder as soon as possible.

Please I have tried everything and checked all folders in email no where to find these emails.

I do believe it is a glitch and a bug in the Microsoft Outlook system. Can someone from Microsoft please look into this and contact me as soon as possible.

I have posted many times and no one has contacted from Microsoft I tried calling and a recorded voice automated machine says help is gone online. This has become a big joke!! I need HELP!!

I type hotmail in google and click login on Outlook and I sign in, I have had no issues in the past just recently noticed emails disappeared.

I need my emails as soon as possible.

Please help!!!

    Hi ,I have had similar issues - all my sent emails after 2022 and any recent ones were no longer showing. After reading this thread and looking at other similar ones I could not get them back. I kept looking at settings and nothing came to light.

    When looking at the open sent items folder I clicked on "Filter" on the top right hand corner then "Sort" and finally "Date" and hey presto the sent items all reappeared. This was previously set correctly as far as I know so it appears that maybe just refreshing the setting did the trick. Perhaps there is some glitch.

    This might be totally unrelated to the issues others have been having but will still post in case it is helpful to someone.

    My emails were permanently deleted. No way I can recover them. And I noticed another important email in the inbox disappeared again recently. I have to say bye bye to outlook (hotmail) what I used almost 30 years. Just like I said bye bye to InternetExporer and chose chrome.

    Are you referring to filter from here as shown in screen shot below? If so, its sorted correctly. Glad that it worked for you!

    I am also having same issue where emails are randomly disappearing from Sent items folder. But what i have noticed that they are moving in to Local Failures Folder in Sync Issues. To access local failures folder you need to switch Folder view in outlook and then you should be able to see the Folder called "Sync Issue>Local Failures".

    I cant find that email when i do search in outlook app. OWA shows word [Queued] in red color, not sure what that means.

    I have troubleshot all server connectivity issue for my client app but no go. Anyone else has any idea?
