Sent mail not getting saved on server

I have an IMAP email account that I am accessing using Mail. I have the preference set to save a copy of the sent mail on the server. When I check my email at work (not on this mac), I do not see any sent mails that were sent from the mac. Is there something else I must do? I do see sent mails from my work pc showing up in the sent mail folder of the IMAP account (not under the Mailboxes -> sent mail folder).

Figured it out. Select the sent mail folder on the server and do Mailbox->Use this mailbox for->Sent

  • Maildir and mac mail (sent mail not being saved)

    Our IT moved a while ago from mbox to maildir and I was experiencing the same problems as everyone, my sent mail wasn't being saved. Read thread for background, http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3622469&#3721196
    I tried the following:
    1. Click Mail
    2. Click Preferences
    3. Click the Accounts button at the top
    4. Click the Advanced tab
    5. In the IMAP Path Prefix box enter INBOX.
    6. Close the window, close Mail, reopen it and try again
    Doing this was necessary but not sufficient. After reading the above thread I also tried selecting an appropriately titled mail folder (sent-messages) in my mail account, clicking MAILBOX in the header menu and selecting USE THIS MAILBOX for SENT. Well long story short, it finally worked!
    This last step is what's being described in the Mail help topic, "Saving copies of email you send."
    For some reason I didn't understand or they didn't explain enough that I first had to select a mail folder.
    This was a head scratcher so I hope it helps somebody.

    Thanks for all of your responses.
    I redid everything you guys mentioned and at one point I got a message that it wasn't reaching the server. The option to "resolve to server" came up (which wasn't the default option) and I clicked it for the heck of it. Sure enough, it fixed the connection. Again, what was odd was that the deault was "try again".
    It's working fine now, but since I don't know what caused the disconnect in the first place, I'm hoping the connection doesn't break again, I accept a meeting, and it doesn't get added to iCal. You'd think there'd be a redundancy for .ics files where it would say:
    You have responded to an invite. Would you like to add to iCal?
    [Yes] [No]
    [ ] Never ask me again
    Or it would there would be an option in Mail that says "Display Calendar invites as [] Attachment [] Email."
    I know the preferences should take care of this, but meetings and appointments are important enough for this type of anal retentiveness.
    Thanks again fo rall your help.

  • Sent mailed not being saved

    I have my preferences set to save Sent mail for a month. It is being saved for 2 days only. I have rebuilt the sent mailbox. Restarted, repaired permissions.
    Thank you for help with this!

    Hello 17black.
    This is an IMAP account, right? Who is the provider?
    Do you get the error message while you compose the message or when you hit Send?
    BTW, if you’re using Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), as your profile indicates, it would have been more appropriate to discuss this in the Mail & Address Book - Tiger forum. If the discussion applies to both Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, it doesn’t really matter, but it’s difficult to know that in advance. The Mailbox Behaviors preference pane that you mention, for example, is called Special Mailboxes in Mail 1.x (and I’ll call it that way if we discuss the problem here).

  • TS3276 Yahoo! sent mail not updated in the server.

    I have an issue with Yahoo! Mail. When I'd sent email from my Mail from my mac book air, it can be sent but a copy is not updated in the server, thus when I view from the web or other device I can't see it as it is not updated. I've checked the "store sent msg in server" in the mail preference.
    I don't this issue with exchange and gmail.
    Thanks

    Right that is how the  POP email protocol works. If you want all mail sent and received to always be on the Mail Server then you have to use a mail provider that allows, uses, either IMAP or MS Exchange.

  • IMAP question - Sent mail not synching to IMAP server

    I have several new IMAP accounts (not .mac). They sync fine for received mail. They also sync sent mail fine when I use Thunderbird. But When I use Mail (X.3 - panther), even though I have the box checked to store sent mail on the server, it does not.
    --> no sent mail folder is created.
    --> mail sent from apple mail does nto show up in Thunderbird
    Is this a known bug?
    How can I work around it?
    Is it fixed in Tiger?
    Thanks, I have searched the archives. no luck.

    no messages are ever added to it when I send from Apple Mail. The one email I sent from thunderbird does show up (in both). In another account, the one email I sent from webmail at the Madrid airport shows up, but not the hundreds I have sent in the interim.
    Sorry about the confusion.

  • Sent mail not showing up on server

    If I send something from an IMAP account on my iPhone it doesn't show up on the server and the same in reverse.

    When you have a question about you iPhone you might get an answer sooner if you post it on the iPhone section.  I can give you an OSX answer.  In Mac Mail > Preferences > Mailbox Behavior, for iMAP accounts there is a Sent option to store sent messages on the server.  Should be something similar on the iPhone.

  • Yahoo sent mail not saved to server when using Mail only.

    Why does my Yahoo sent mail not get saved to the server when I use Apple's Mail program? (I have it saved in settings to keep sent mail on server).  I can see it in my Sent mail folder on Apple Mail but not on the yahoo server.  It's an IMAP account and it works fine on my iPhone.
    I have tried changing the outgoing ports as well and erasing the account and reinstating it on the Mail program. No luck.

    This solved my questionRe: Yahoo Mail folder behaviour with Apple Mail 5.0 
    Dec 8, 2011 5:14 PM (in response to ernestobenedict)
    I finally figured out how to fix this; under the mailbox menu there is an option to "use this mailbox for" that allowed me to select the Sent Items folder from my Yahoo IMAP list of folders and make it the default for sent items from the Mac OS X mail software! "
    Thanks to ernestobenedict for this solution!!!

  • Mail & Exchange (imap) & Blackberry Server,sent mail not visisble on mobile

    I have setup my email account using mail and a Microsoft Exchange server 2000.
    I use imap to access the Mailboxes (inbox, trash, drafts, sent mail is stored on the server)
    On the Exchange server a BES is running and synchronises my Mail to my mobile Device.
    Now, when I write a Mail using outlook on my PC, every Mail I sent, also appears on the mobile device - as expected.
    The same is not true when I write a Mail using Apple Mail.
    Even, if The mail is appearing in the send items folder on the Exchange Server, for some reason the BES server does not pick it up.
    Does anyone know a tweak for mail to make this work ?

    Something is wrong with the Mail app the last week and half or so.  Messages are disappearing, not getting synched, don't stay in the saved folders they are moved to, jump back at later dates (even days later) to the original inboxes, etc.  Very unstable and unreliable.  It was working better for a few months before this latest update, but is an absolutely messy nightmare right now. Changes made in Apple Mail are not getting reflected in other mail apps or on the external mail servers in a reliable, usefull manner.  Some do, some don't.   Use another mail app until Apple gets this fixed.

  • Sent mail not saved

    I have a problem with MAIL.  Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my SENT emails are not being saved.  I selected my POP account mailbox under the SENT mailbox, and went to the MAILBOX pulldown, then selected USE THIS MAILBOX FOR, but SENT is not selectable.
    How do I get my sent mails to be saved in my Sent box.

    Maybe this will help. If you monitor the "More Like This" box, other solved threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.

  • File not getting Saved on Application Server

    We created a file in "Automatic Payment Transactions (F110 Transaction)" and are able to save the text file on Local drive. But for our e-banking requirement we need to store this file on our application server. The configuration settings in OBPM4 are already done and now system is picking the default application server path while saving file in "Payment Medium - > DME Administration" transaction. The problem is - although the system is picking the required path of application server but file is not getting saved. The error coming is: File <path> could not be opened (Message Number: FZ231).
    We have checked for 777 authorisations (OS authorisations) for the folder.
    Please suggest that what can be done to resolve th issue.
    Regards,

    What exactly we need to check in Payment program? We are not able to save the file on application server. There is no problem while saving the same in local drive.

  • Load remote images in html mail setting does not get saved. I have to turn it off every time I log in. Is this a bug?

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • Mail Sent Items not Syncing with Rackspace Server

    Hi,
    My sent items are not fully syncing with my rackspace email account. Some items sent through Mail show up in the rackspace sent items and some do not. I am worried that emails are not being sent. Also, when replicating, Mail will show something like "outgoing messages 35 of 35", when I send a single email to a single individual. What is that all about?
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Hi All
    Just to add my solution in here. I was gaving the issue where all of my mail had synchronised, and all of my ical and all of addressbook. However, my sent mail folder was not syncing, and worse still, no new sent mail was being saved off in sent mail.
    Initially I thought it was a mailbox size thing, so I archived off the majority of my mail on another machine, deleted the sent mails, and then let the other machine sync with Exchange.
    However still the same issue on a tiny mailbox. After seeing this thread (pointed here by Apple Tech support - thanks Clement) i deleted all sent mails on another machine, jumped back onto mac mail.app and all was well.
    I still have a weird issue with delinquent emails in sent mail that wont delete, but I can live with that.
    I too wish that Apple would make a more robust mail application - Apple ProMail as part of the iwork suite anyone??

  • ESS Leave request not getting Saved to Infotype

    Hai All,
    I created a Leave Workflow wherein there are 5 levels of Approval. After the final approver approves, the Workflow will be Completed but, the data is not getting saved to the Infotype. I ran the reports required, but still it is not getting saved.
    I have created a User Decision Step and the type of that is: BOR -> Decision -> Process. I think, the BOR is not returning the Value Approve or Reject correctly. I haven't made any changes to the BOR. So, it has to return the Status correctly right? Please correct me if I am wrong.
    According to Outputs of the above step (Aprove, Reject or Obselete), further steps are designed. But, on Final Check for Approved (where the status is checked for Approval), it returns False as the Status is set as SENT  (?).( I checked the Workflow Log and the status there seems to be SENT, instead of Approved) I think, due to this status, the Infotye is not getting Saved.
    Please help me on this.
    Regards,
