Recovering a sent e-mail message

When I send e-mail, it doesn't save in my sent box. I am trying to recover an e-mail I sent, and I am not sure where to find it. It is gone forever, or is there someway to access it?

If you have selected save copies to server, your sent mail should still be there. Go to the web page of your ISP and click on sent mail.

I have another problem with my restored sent e-mail messages

I like to back up my mail on my MacBook Pro. Ever since I restored my sent e-mail messages on my iMac using its TM, I copy my mail folder on my MacBook Pro but the sent messages doesn't work on my MBP.
I think that I know the cause is, on my external drive it says: Backup for Steve's iMac. I think that means the backups will only work for my iMac.
So here's my question, is there anyway to change my sent e-mail messages to universal so they will work both in my iMac and my MBP again?
BTW, although I have time capsule for my MBP but I use mail exclusively on my iMac. So at the end of the day I just copy my iMac's mail folder into my MBP and only I start my mail application in my MBP is to make sure that all of the changes are there. I do this day after day.
So the changes come from my iMac, do you know what I mean?

Sounds like a permission problem, but I can't be sure.
You may benefit from MobileMe to sync your email instead of copying and pasting.
Just a thought.

Sent e-mail messages do not appear in the sent box

sent e-mail messages do not appear in the sent box

Glad it's working for you but it's still not for me. I was sending emails fine today and they went to sent box then all of a sudden they aren't there. Does anyone know what is the problem and a simple solution?

Did you know that TM's browser will NOT back up your sent E-mail messages?

In Apple Mail anyway.
Since Verizon Yahoo! password fiasco, I decided just re-do my Verizon E-mail account. Figuring if I lost messages that I could bring the messages back in TM's browser.
I lost all my sent messages. I thought okay I'm going to enter my TM's browser and bring them back. However you can't do it for strange reason, the browser only has the NOW going. The pass is greyed out.
I know I should try the hard backup with Leopard's CD, but that's a pain in the butt. Besides I've saved a few E-mails since then too.
My main point is that I thought that TM's browser could restore EVERYTHING on my Mac. I've gotten a little sloppy since TM figuring that I had a good and fast backup system.
If TM's browser doesn't backup everything then Apple needs to tell us what it doesn't back up.

Here is a list of things TM excludes by default:

HT201320 Can't find my sent e-mail messages

Hello All-
I have my e-mail set up, but, I cannot see my outbox, or drafts, only my inbox.
Thanks,
Dee Anna

Scroll down in the Mail app to the Accounts section and tap on the account name.
Note that unless you have an MS Exchange, iCloud or IMAP account you will not see messages sent from your computer, only those you send from the phone. And even for those there will be nothing there until you open the folder, which causes it to sync with the server.

I deleted a pop email account from mail. How can I recover those sent messages without Time Machine?

I deleted a pop email account from mail. How can I recover those sent messages without Time Machine?

Thomas,
"Note that you were warned that this would happen and approved it. When you delete an e-mail account in Mail, you are shown a message like the following:"
You didn't read my problem - I said I deleted a POP email account. I always read the messages that pop up and in Mail when you delete a POP account - IT DOESN'T TELL YOU NUTHIN! It just deletes it - which *** for me. Fortunately, I had an iPhone and on that device I had about a 1000 messages that I could recover but on all my POP accounts I download them from the server onto my Mac so they were only on Mail (the really old ones that I wanted to keep.) I had to move them into another directory one by one basically because when I would move 50 some of them would move and some wouldn't and I never did figure out that problem. Basically the ones that would not move are the ones that were associated with my domain changes with GoDaddy, and there were a lot of those. Have no idea as to why only those were resistant to moving but I can get all that data from GoDaddy anyway.
This thread is now moot seeing as how I've recovered everything I can and am going to just move on - and back up more often. ;-)
Apple and Mail need to rewrite that program to include a WARNING MESSAGE when deleting an Account in Mail that says ALL YOUR MESSAGES ARE GOING TO DISAPPEAR NEVER TO RETURN IF YOU DELETE THIS ACCOUNT, SO YOU DANG WELL BETTER HAVE A BACK UP IF YOU WANT TO KEEP ANYTHING BEFORE PRESSING THAT MINUS SYMBOL! ;-)

Is there a way to recover a deleted ( by accident) e-mail message on my iPad? The e-mail was created, I thought I hit the send button..

Hi there, does anyone know how to recover a newly created e-mail message that was possibly deleted instead of sent. I think my I may have hit the delete button instead of the send button? I have searched all my e-mail folders: draft, trash, sent etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes with an Exchange or IMAP account, which are designed for this very thing.
All server stored mailboxes with an Exchange or IMAP account are synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account.
This is not possible with an antiquated POP account which was designed to be accessed with a single email client only - developed when the overwhelming majority of computer users had one computer - a desktop, and before notebooks were commonplace.

How can I make a rule to mark all messages sent to Mail Trash as Read?

How can I make a rule to mark all messages sent to Mail Trash as Read?
When I look at some emails on my phone, I can see from the title that I don't need to read the email so I delete it without opening it. When I go to my Macbook Pro and open mail, the number of unread messages in my Trash shows next to the name. It drives me nuts. Can I just set a rule to mark all messages sent to trash as read? If that isn't possible, I'd take just making the number not show beside the Trash folder.

Just in the case that I actually do need to go back to them for some reason. I have some OCD tendencies which is also why the number beside the folder drives me nuts.

In Mail, how do I make it so that email replies to me are sent to the email address from which I sent my original message?

I have two IMAP accounts set up in Mail, one work and one personal. The personal account also receives emails from a third account (but I have that set up through gmail's forwarding, not Mail). I am sending emails from my work account and replies are coming to this third account, which I don't want to happen.
How do I make it so that replies to me are sent to the email address from which I sent my original message?
Thanks for your help!

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Or you can use your Apple ID to register with this site and go the Apple BugReporter. Supposedly you will get an answer if you submit feedback.

The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly

I have a 2 server SharePoint farm.
All outgoing emails were working fine.
I just restarted both servers and now after that none of the emails are being sent. I am using OOB publishing workflow and it shows message:
The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
Even if I setup Alert on some list, it doesn't send email.
I have checked that outgoing email setting in CA is defined and like I said it was working fine without problems but after restart it is showing error.
What could be the cause of this and how to fix it?
EDIT
I removed outgoing mail server in CA, added again and restart IIS but still emails from OOB workflow is not being sent. But email from Alerts are being sent. Don't know what to do now.

This is really weird, It works when an alert is set but workflows doesn't send emails... Can you create a simple 1 Step workflow in SPD to send an email when a specific field is set. See if this sends an email..
AJ MCTS: SP 2010 Configuration MCSA: Windows 7 If you find this post useful kindly please mark it as an answer :) TY
I created a test workflow which sends email to user and it is also not sending email. But I am getting email from SharePoint regarding "variation" page changes as well as alerts which I told above.

E-mail messages sent, are received not in the paragraph-form as sent, but

Dear Friends,
E-mail messages sent, are received not in the paragraph-form as sent, but are broken-up into small segments, one line finely printed, the next line may appear with just two or three words printed on it, then the next line will show a few words at the end of it, while the next line appears as the start of another paragraph, and so on and on and on. So that the original message, although sent in the one paragraph-form, winds up being received as several paragraphs, each broken up into several segments. My contacting Apple has produced no solution thus far. I am new at this computer business and would greatly appreciate any help you can give me on this score. Thanking you in advance for your interest and kind help.
Yours Truly,
GMS.

I'm using Apple Mail 2.1.3 on a MacBook running OS 10.4.11. A very strange thing is happening. E-mail messages that I either sent or received months ago are showing up in my mailbox and receivers' mailboxes. Help!

I'm using Apple Mail 2.1.3 on a MacBook running OS 10.4.11. A very strange thing is happening. E-mail messages that I either sent or received months ago are showing up in my mailbox and receivers' mailboxes. In one case, a message someone had sent to me wound up in the mailbox of a third person, who was not included in the address list!! I have only two accounts, and have checked everything; only one account is showing the repeats Now, that account is my professional account, and it resides in three places: I use it on the laptop described here, I use it through Apple Mail on the much newer desktop Mac in my office, and I can run it through Web mail on my employer's server, which is where the professional account resides (I have a mailbox there, etc.) That program is called Zimbra.
My personal account is with Earthlink and is not doing the repeats. I access it either through my MacBook's Apple Mail or the Web; the Apple Mail on my office Mac is not configured to access the Earthlink server.
What IS going on here?? My friends, colleagues, and students (I teach college) are mystified by these ancient messages.
Thanks for any help!!

TS3899 I send an e-mail message from my iPhone 5c and it shows up in Sent folder as a duplicate, 2 of the same e-mail messages sent at the same time.

I send an e-mail message from my iPhone 5c and it shows up in Sent folder as a duplicate message. 2 identical messages sent at the same time. What's up with this? Tried Apple Support by phone, and did a couple of troubleshoots, then my connection with Apple Support was cut off. Issue not resolved yet.

Did the mail get sent? Is the only issue the fact that it appears twice in the Sent folder?
