Sent mail does not appear in sent mail folder

Hi. Odd problem. I have done a search for this but can't find an answer.
I have an IMAP account with PIPEX and mail will not display the sent messages.
Mail has 3 folders - Inbox, Sent, Trash.
IMAP account has 2 folders - INBOX and a sub folder sent-mail.
Inbox/INBOX syncs fine.
Nothing appears at all in Sent.
Sent messages sync ok, as (using finder) they appear in my library at myusername/library/mail/IMAP-(mylogin)/INBOX/sent-mail.imapmbox/Messages
For info, the inbox messages are stored at myusername/library/mail/IMAP-(mylogin)/INBOX.imapmbox/Messages.
For info again I have store sent messages on server selected in preferences (because I need to see them from another computer)
I have tried 'rebuild' several times on the inbox & the rebuild option is greyed out on the sent folder.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Hi Stringbag.
This account requires INBOX to be put in Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > IMAP Path Prefix for Mail to handle it properly. Mailboxes on the server should not appear as subfolders of the account’s Inbox in Mail.
After having done that, Mail should be able to properly save sent messages on the server, but maybe in a mailbox different from where you want them to be stored. To fix that, select the desired folder in Mail, and do Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For > Sent.

  • Firefox won't install on my Mac, it just finishes the installation then does not appear in my Applications folder.

    Firefox offered to create a new profile for me, but took forever to do so so eventually I had to shut off the computer. In restarting, initially Firefox would not open as "Profile could not be found". Having moved Firefox to my trash folder, when I attempt to install Firefox again, it completes the download, then does not appear in my Applications folder.

    This is likely caused by a problem with the profiles.ini file and the profile marked as Default=1 in this file is not present on the hard drive.
    *Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/
    You can use one of these to make Firefox create/use a new default profile:
    *Delete the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
    *Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
    *Use "Choose Folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Managing+profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Download and save the full Firefox installer to the desktop and start the installation with a double-click on the desktop icon.
    You can find the full version of the current Firefox 29.0.1 release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:

  • HT1390 I downloaded a movie but it does not appear in my movie folder

    I downloaded a movie from iTunes (confirmed that my account was charged for it) but it does not appear in my iTunes library.  (I have done this before - the movie automatically appeared in my Movies folder the last time.  This time, it did not.)

  • Want to backup my iphoto library to ext. drive, but it does not appear in the picture folder. When I select the picture folder iphoto opens, nothing to drag. Help please? 2013 iMac

    I want to back up my iphoto library to my external drive, but can't find it it in my computer's tree. When I click pictures in the tree, it launches iphoto and there is no file name or icon to drag. What am I missing? I'm sure it is simple what ever it is. Help please?

    now that you have found your iPhoto library you can drag it to the external drive to backup it up
    If you launch iPhoto does it work properly?
    However, when I tried to relocate it to the pictures folder, I get a message that I can't add the library because the folder is defective or damaged.
    Exactly what are you doing? what is the exact error message?
    And as to
    Should I trash the pref file for pictures folder and try again?
    I have no idea what you are speaking of - files and folers do not have Pref files - only applications have Pref files

  • Template does not appear in project folder

    Hi
    My template has disappeared from my project. Therefore, I
    have tried reimporting the template to the 'Templates' folder in
    the project folder. When I do this, I do not get an error message.
    But the *.htt file does not appear in the 'Templates' folder and I
    cannot attach it to help texts?? When I open my file manager I can,
    however, see that the *.htt file is indeed placed in the current
    project. Can anybody help?
    Thanks
    Lena

    Yep! These forums are littered with problems caused by
    working over a network. RH is essentially an Access DB and this has
    well documented problems with networks. Work off your hard drive
    and back up to your network each night. That's works for me. Try
    importing your template once you've copied your project to your PC
    and come back if you still have problems. You may have to recreate
    your template as it is not impossible that the .HTT file has become
    corrupted.

  • Re-installed CS3 and Bridge does not appear...?

    I was having major issues with Bridge (slow-moving, then crashing and finally an inability to open altogether).  I tried a c number of things like clearing caches, repairing permissions etc.  In the end, I uninstalled Photoshop CS3 and deleted all Bridge files, and reinstalled PS from the CD.  However, after the re-instal, Bridge does not appear in the Apps folder and does not seem to have loaded at all.  How do I get Bridge back?  Any ideas?  Clearly I should not have simply deleted the faulty Bridge app., but I assumed a clean re-install of PS CS3 would re-load Bridge.  Any suggestions?  Thanks....

    Don't know why Bridge application was still there while having uninstalled
    PSCS3 using the uninstaller that Adobe provides in either the utility folder
    or in the application folder itself. (or did you you remove the application
    by dragging it to the trash, usually a very bad idea when an official
    uninstaller app is provided for this task)
    However reinstall should by default install Bridge again in the default
    application folder on root level. That is if you have not chosen anything
    else when installing from DVD (you mention CD?  but the original CS3 was
    delivered on a DVD)
    You also should check if the installer has a checkmark in font of all
    application, I think to remember also in CS3 you have the option to choose
    for a custom installation without Bridge. Could you check that.
    And can you also confirm you have a install DVD and PS is in the default
    application folder, that is not in the user account but on root level on
    your system.
    Clearly I should not have simply deleted the faulty Bridge app., but I assumed
    a clean re-install of PS CS3 would re-load Bridge.  Any suggestions? 
    Thanks....

  • Application does not appear in applications folder

    On OS X Mountain Lion, there is an application (not from the Mac App Store) that does not appear in my applications folder, but it DOES appear in Launchpad and I would like to delete it. How can I remove it? Since it is not from the Mac App Store, I cannot click the "x" or drag it to the trash.

    Where is the application located if not in the Applications folder? You can use Spotlight to find it. When you do just drag it to the Trash.

  • Sent mail does not appear in sent mailbox after sending

    Sent mail does not appear in sent mailbox after sending

    From reports on this site, Yahoo mail doesn't work reliably with Mail. The following steps may help.
    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • In Apple mail, the attachment symbol does not appear in the list of sent items

    In Apple mail, the attachment symbol does not appear in the list of sent items. So you cannot sort sent emails based on whether or not they have an attachment. Is there a way to fix this?

    I think my question wasn't clear. I know how to display the attachment header (I use classic layout) but the problem is that the paperclip icon does not appear against the messages that contain attachments. See screenshot below. The attachment column is displayed but is blank. These are my sent items and I know for a fact that most of them have attachments. Can you help?

    Hello Sally1958,
    This is may be because one of your mail accounts is using a different folder for it's 'Sent' bucket. The following article goes into further detail, and also explains how to change the bucket that each account uses.
