E75 Sent Email Missing

The sent items folder has disappeared from my POP3 email account on my E75. Where will I find my lost emails?
This is not an Exchange account or a gmail/yahoo type account.

Hi there...I hope nobody will be mad for activating this old post.Thing is I have same issue. I understand why it happens but don't know how to deal with it.When ever I have mail on mine provider’s server, all mail boxes (sent, outbox, drafts) are visible on E75.If I download all e-mails from that inbox from the main server I empty it by automatically deleting messages from that inbox after they are received with main personal computer. So it is standard POP mail. What happens with E75 is that it will sync with inbox, it will se there are no messages in the inbox, and it will delete all received mails downloaded on the phone. That is something I don't understand how to change, and how can that be normal behavior? When E75 empties it’s own inbox (inbox folder on the phone) then all the folders like sent items, outbox etc are not visible and I can't reach them. Again when I receive email to inbox on the phone then I see all the folders again with all sent items and other mail folders. How to change behavior of the E75 to act like standard basic e-mail client like Outlook express that downloads messages to phone, but leaves copy on main server like it does now, and keep all downloaded messages in the phone until I delete them? Or how to get access to all mail folders (sent, outbox, drafts) when e75 e-mail inbox is empty?
Thx for any help.

Sent emails missing after ios 5 upgrade

After upgrading to ios 5, all sent emails are missing from my iPad 1.

From what I recall, I updated all of my apps first. After attempting to sync the updated apps to my phone, I got a message stating something like "The app Numbers cannot be synced to this device". I made a few more attempts at syncing with the same result, I decided to just update the OS and maybe things will work again. After upgrading to iOS 5, I was able to reinstall numbers, but all of my spreadsheets were gone.
Ruining my phone sounds less than ideal. Any ideas?

Sent emails missing spaces

Hi i am currently using Apple Mail 2.1.3 to send and receive emails. Pretty much since the day i have been using this all my clients have complained that when they receive emails sent from me a lot of the words are joined together and missing spaces. But looking in my sent box they look fine to me.
having tested this a bit further in my office i am the only mac user but my colleagues use a PC and have no problem with sent emails.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?
thanks,
Martin

Hi i changed the font to a standard default (arial) but no suck luck still. I can't have plain text emails as company policy to have a coloured footer.
Here is an example of how one of my clients received an email i sent them. Again most of my clients have this problem with me.

SENT emails missing

I have a brand new iPad mini. I'm finding that SENT email do not seem to get saved. At least I can't find them. Im familiar with the iOS 5.x interface on my iPhone and where to look for SENT emails there. Is there something different about iOS 6? Or is this a glitch? Thanks for any help you can provide.

Are you sure it was sent and not in your drafts?

Sent email missing attachments

Since I upgraded to OS 10.4.11 I have been having a problem with my emails to others missing the attachments. They swear my attachment is not there although it is marked 'sent' on my side and I get no error or bounce back from any servers. When I go back to make sure I attached the item it is there in my mail. These are small image attachments that should not hit size limits (630k-5mb). This is embarrassing! It seems to be intermittent (mailing to the same person, sometimes they get it sometimes they don't) and only happens when I send to people on PCs from my MAC. Any advice? Is it my problem or their problem?

the next time that this happens, can you get one of these recipients to save the inbound mail message as "raw message source" including full headers and send it to you? then see whether there are some lines of text just beneath the headers that look similar to this:
--Apple-Mail-17--507881185
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset=US-ASCII;
format=flowed
This is a test
--Apple-Mail-17--507881185
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Type: image/tiff;
name=galaxy.tiff;
x-unix-mode=0644;
x-mac-hide-extension=yes
Content-Disposition: inline;
filename=galaxy.tiff
{start bunches of random characters that are the ascii-encoded file attachment}
also, are there any lines in the actual header that indicate that either the sending or the receiving server stripped off the attachment?

Sent Email - Missing Text in Body

Recently Mail.app has started displaying some very strange behavior when sending email. My account is Exchange based. About 25% of mails that I send are ending up delivered with no text in the body of the email. There does not appear to be a pattern to which emails end up stripped of message text. When I look in my sent mail the email message is also missing the body text even though I definitely had text originally. Any ideas?

OK, have you installed any fonts lately?
Open Mail>Preferences>Fonts & Colors, what is the message font & fixed width font sent to, try changing them & see what shows up.
Also, I can't delete an email.
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

Sent emails are missing from Thunderbird following migration from alternative email client and import of emails

All sent emails are missing from the Thunderbird 'Sent' folder following import, but Sent folder still shows a count of the imported emails (Thunderbird considered them to be unread when importing them, hence the count). The messages are also visible online (BT Internet email) and on other devices (Android running BlueMail). Settings are set to place copies of sent items into Sent folder. Having imported all my old email, I can send email but again they do not appear in the Sent folder (but do appear online and on other devices). I have tried compacting the Sent folder and i have tried repairing the folder. All other folders (Inbox, other newly created folders) show the email i have imported.
If I move an email online from the Sent folder to another test folder, it syncs and appears in Thunderbird in that test folder. If I then use Thunderbird to move the email back from that test folder to the Sent folder then Thunderbird will do so, but locks up for a good minute or so while doing that.
Running TB 24.6.0 on Windows 8.1, incoming server set to IMAP on mail.btinternet.com (port 993), outgoing server set to SMTP on mail.btinternet.com (port 465).
Help gratefully received!

Cheers for that, Mulder.
It did seem to recover some emails which had disappeared from Mail, but not all of them. That's the frustrating thing - short of going through my Yahoo webmail accounts and logging every single email, and then cross-referencing with what's on my desktop, I just can't be sure what's there and what's not!
Sometimes it's immediately clear that something is awry - the folder I use for emails from my girlfriend is completely empty, for instance, when I definitely had things in there before the weekend. (Yes, again I went away for the weekend, with the computer still running - and Mail on - and again I returned to discover emails missing.
Arrgh!

Old "sent emails" are MISSING

I've been using me.com since 2008, back then it was a paid service. When the time came, I switched to iCloud, no problem, I enjoy the service. Recently I need to find some sent emails during the period of mid-2011 then I realized that my "Sent" folder only records sent emails from May 2012 (which I think around the time I switched to iCloud, perhaps June 2012). Older emails are MISSING. I'm using Mail in my iMac but when I tried to login to www.me.com or www.icloud.com, and accessed my "Sent" folder, it's the same. Strangely enough, my emails in "Inbox" (both in my iMac & at the server) are intact, only those in "Sent" folder are missing.
Anyone has any idea what's going on? Is there a chance I could get my old emails (pre-May, 2012)? Thanks.

I've been using Mail (currently 4.6 (1085)) to handle all my emails including my Gmail account. Yes, I did migrate, I remember changing some settings through the web but I don't recall changing things in my Mail setting. Perhaps, I did, I'm not sure. I attach a screen capture of my Mail settings:
Yes, it's foolish to have no backup. I've been using TimeMachine with TimeCapsule for quite some time now. I think I switched from MM to iCloud around June 2012, when it was close to deadline. Does my attached picture answer your question about the server setting?

Has anybody experienced missing sent emails after updating their iPhone to IOS 5.0? Mail composed on phone appears to send but is never delivered nor does it show in sent items. Using Exchange 2010. Any thoughts??

@Satterp
Not sure if you were responding to me or OP - my iPhone is on 5.1. The OP at the time of writing was on 5.0.1.
Also, the OP and I had setup our Hotmail as an Exchange server (similar to IMAP), not POP3.

Missing sent emails in mail 6.3

Using Mail 6.3 and a gmail.imap account. My sent emails are missing from my macbook pro but can view them at mail.google.com and on my iphone and ipad. How do I set up my mail account to display the missing sent emails?

Hi APK25,

Sent iCloud email missing!

Help! I have sent an email, and recepient confirmed that he got it, but it is not in my Sent items. Email vanished from Mail.app! I did not delete it, I did nothing to it, it just never laned in my Sent items!
Why is this happening? Can this be prevented?
To answer some possible questions; yes, I do have Store Sent Emails on Server option and no, my iCloud storage is not full.

Vanishing sent-mails is a serious issue that's plaguing Mac users since Snow Leopard, yet has never been addressed, let alone solved, by Apple.
For instance, see this lengthy discussion that started in May 2011: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3065096?start=0&tstart=0
Rather than playing Russian Roulette with my messages I chose to abandon the unreliable Mail.app and payed 10 bucks to get Postbox, which is a good and reliable alternative.

Missing sent emails

Hi
it's my first time writting a topic here, but I just want to know if I am the only stupid in the world suffering this problem.
I have configured my Mobileme IMAP account on mail Mail.app 3.6
I have changed the smtp server with the configuration of my office email, so when I send an email it seems I do it from my office email account.
Until there everything works perfect.
But, every now and then, when I send an email, it won't be saved in the sent folder. It is actually sent (because I have answers to the email) but it just won't appear in the sent folder.
This is very inconvenience to me, because sometimes, the sent email is the proof of e.g. a booking or whatever, and I need the email ....
I have been fighting against this problem for months, and I don't know if this is a Leopard problem, a Mail.app problem, a Internet connection problem, a general IMAP problem, a configuration problem , a mobileme problem...
A couple years ago, I used to use entourage as mail software, and I don't remember having this problem, although I don't remember either if the account was configured as an IMAP account.
I have partially found a "solution" setting me always as a Cco, and making a rule that all emails coming from my address have to be moved to a folder I have created (sentbackup). So I always have a copy, but this is just more trafic, more space,...
Is this happening to anyone alse? do you experts know what could be the problem?
I would really apprecite if you help me on this
Muchas gracias and greetings from Spain!

How do I retrieve "lost" sent emails?

Whilst attempting to rectify problems with my wife's mail program in Tiger 10.4.11, on her PowerBook 6.8 12" G4 laptop, I reduced the time from "Never" to "One Week" before sent emails are erased, believing that this would reduce the storage required on the ISP's server.
Instead I find that all old outgoing emails older than one week, are no longer available on her 12" G4 laptop, and my life has become ****.
How do I get Mail to display the "lost" outgoing emails?
The last backup of this machine was about two months ago, so I need to find and restore/import at least the past couple of months of outgoing emails, which have been erased.
Advice please.

Unfortunately, it sounds like the missing messages have actually been erased. You might want to download the free trial of this software to see if anything is recoverable. I don't have any personal experience with it.

Snow Leopard 10.6.1 IMAP Sent Messages Missing! Where are they?

I upgraded to 10.6 from 10.5 and everything was fine apart from push to the iPhone! In an effort to get it all working I decided to do a clean install, so backed up my mail accounts (which should now be in one place in 10.6) and everything else + made disc image etc. However, after doing the clean install, and reconnecting the backed up email accounts, I can only see the mails in the inbox. There are no emails in the sent messages! I have looked in the mail account folders and can’t see anywhere that sent messages are stored. I have also since the clean install created new users and sent emails to see if anything arrives in that users mail store, and nothing comes in that I can see, but they can see the newly sent message in their sent folder! Only sent messages prior to the re-install are missing. I have the old install of the server backed up, so I can access them if I knew where to get them from.
Where are sent messages stored? It looks like they are going to some other location on the server rather than the specified location in mail prefs.
Has anyone else experienced this, or have any advice.
Cheers

Hi, I used ditto (as root) to back up all the folders from /var/spool/imap/dovecot/mail/ and then to restore them – however, they are now in a new location on a separate drive which the mail prefs are pointing too. I have checked to see if anything is going into /var/spool/imap/dovecot/mail/ and nothing is there – which is correct.
I have also checked permissions and they are fine.
If this was a brand new install it would all be working as normal – I can see new sent messages, just not the old ones or old folders that users might have made.
However there is no folder in the UID’s called Sent Messages – even with new accounts! The only folders are "cur" (received mails), "new" and "tmp". I have no idea where the sent messages are being saved too (old or new)! I was expecting a folder within the UID’s with the sent messages inside.

Restoring sent email from IMAP account using Time Machine backup

I see others are having trouble with sent mail after Snow Leopard upgrades, but I think I have a different issue.
After my domain host's most recent 12-hour downtime, I shifted my domain's email hosting to Google. Everything's working fine sending and receiving, but now I'm missing a year's worth of sent email from that account. It's all backed up on Time Machine, but I'm looking for advice on how to restore the backed up sent mail from Time Machine while preserving the couple of weeks' worth of sent email that's in the Mail app's sent box for that account now.
Thanks!

Sorry for the lag time closing this question out. I eventually shut everything down, including the external hard drive, spun everything back up and tried again. (I had been on the correct, earlier backup file and not on the current day, which was why the grayed out restore button was so disconcerting.)
The second attempt worked, but it took two or three tries to retrieve all the sent emails. The first two outings only recovered about 10 days' worth despite having months of sent email selected and available to recover. The third time it grudgingly worked correctly.
The whole experience has left me very wary about Time Machine, frankly. I do thank everyone for their help. I'll post this note in the other forum and so there's a resolution to bot
