Why is sent mail not being shown in sent box?

I even question whether sent mail is really being sent. It tells me it is but without verification I don't know,

Your intuition is correct. When sending a message via your iPhone, the MBP automatically sends duplicate messages to your desktop. And you're right: it's annoying to have to trash messages you already sent - but at least you know your system is working.
There's a neat fix for this. On your ISP's mail application, add a mail box devoted only to your iPhone messages (e.g., [email protected]). Most ISPs will let your add email accounts this way. Add and configure the new email to sync with your iPhone. The next time you use your iPhone with this account, you won't get any duplicate messages, since your iMac hasn't been configured to accept messages from [email protected].
Problem solved? If so, post here so others can use this information. If not, do you need more information?

Sent E-mails not being shown

Hi, I have a MBA and since yesterday all the e-mails that I have sent are not being shown in the sent folder. I sent one to myself and I got it so it must be working but how can I see them again after I sent them? Oh and the other problem is that search function does not work the way it used to. When I typed in one word it would show me all e-mails that had that word in them including the ones from e-mail adresses with which had the word in the adress.
Does anyone know how to get this to work?
That would be great! Thanks!
P.S.: English is not my native language, sorry for mistakes

Hi McGrey24,
A couple of important questions to get us on the right track.
1.) What type of email account are you using? Who's the service provider?
2.) What are you using to search? The Spotlight feature inside mail or the OS-wide Spotlight search?
The Mail search requires a little tweaking, by default it doesn't give you access to your entire account just specific mailboxes. There are ways to control if you want to search all mailboxes or if you're looking for the text string as the subject (or just content).

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.
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9) Mail Version 2.1 (752/752.2)

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).

SMTP sent mail not showing up in sent mail folder

Hello,
Setup:
Exchange 2010 SP1
Outlook 2010
C# for sending mail, or Pentaho Kettle
Not really sure how to explain, but I have the following scenario:
Automatic programs send email using credentials (an active username / password on the domain. account linked to a mail box).
Mail gets sent.
Mail does not show up in the sent mail folder of the account
I was wondering if there was a parameter on the Exchange server to configure so that the email sent via SMTP would show up in the sent mail box of the account.
Regards,

Hi Olivier,

Sent Emails not being saved in Sent Messages Folder

I have been sending emails while logged into .Mac at work and I have not been receiving replies. When I send mail from my other accounts my friends tell me they never received mail from my .Mac acct. I even tried sending a blank one to myself and it was not showing up in the sent messages folder. How can I get all my messages to be saved in the send messages folder and not just some of them?
Thank You

No one answered. I got outside help

Why are security headers not visible when viewing "sent" mail for mail sent with S/MIME certificates?

I am using an S/MIME certificate to sign my emails using Mail on Mountain Lion 10.8.2. I have a trusted S/MIME certificate for each of my email accounts. The certs and private keys are properly installed in the keychain. I am able to successfully send signed (and optionality encrypted) email and the recipients are all all receiving the emails showing a trusted signed email without having to acknowledge or trust the signature. So technically the certificates are working. Obviously the encryption option is only offered when I also have the recipients certficate in my keychain.
What I am noticing is that when I look in my sent items - (regardless of which email I used as the "sender") - I don't see any indication in the mail headers that the mail was sent with a signed certificate - even though I know the recipient is seeing that the mail is signed with a cert. I have no way of telling whether I sent the mail as "signed" or "unsiged". The default is to use the certificate for all outbound emails - unless I specifically uncheck the secure signing option before sending. In mail that I recieve - sent from others with certs or sent from one of my email accounts to the other - I see the the certificate indication in the email header.
On rare occasion - I do see the certificate when viewing sent mail - but only for random sent mails - and so far I believe I have only seen the certificate show up in mail that is sent from my iCloud account. I can send subsequent mail from iCloud - and still not see the certificate in the sent items.
Why am I not seeing the Security Header showing the certificate when viewing mail that I have sent in my sent items folder? Is there some setting that I am not seeing that controls this - or is this a bug in Mac Mail? Also why does the security header show up for just a handful of sent emails - when hundreds of signed emails have been successfully sent.
Any help would be appreciated. The behavior is the same on my other Macs - at least the ones on which the certificates are also installed.
Also - I don't have my certs installed on my iPhone yet - so I can't tell on the iPhone if the certs are showing up in the sent folder - but I can see the certs on mail that I send to myself from the Mac but receive on the iPhone.
~Scott

I stopped using the S/MIME certs and stopped signing my emails. Too many recipients were receiving them as "attachements" especially if the recipients email account was on an Exchange server. My certs have since expired and I have not done anything to further analyze the situation. My original post was over a year ago and I have long since been on Mavericks.
To: iddontknowwhoiamsowhat ... I am not totally following your response. You say you are seeing the exact same issue - yet you are also saying you can look at the sent mails from os x and ios - does this mean that you see the security badges on the sent emails in both os x and ios? I assume you are on Mavericks?

Solved Problem - mail not being sent and kept in Outbox....

I've posted a few messages here about mail not being able to be sent and kept in the Outbox.
It is solved. I believe.
Everything seems to be back to normal. I guess it was a problem of me over stepping limitations for .Mac e-mail, and getting locked out for a 24 hour period. So, I will be more care next time I need to e-mail large files to numbers of people ! Probably will invest in something like Stuffit and use there compression facility to reduce the size of files I want to send over the internet and via e-mail.
Thanks to those who took interest and gave advice.

You don't have to invest in Stuffit.
Built-in compression is included with the Finder.
To compress files before sending them, use the Archive command in the Finder's File menu. Select the file or files you want to compress, then choose File > Create Archive.
A compressed archive of the files is created. If you archive a single item, the archived file has the name of the original item with a ".zip" extension. If you archive multiple items at once, the archived file is named Archive.zip.
Recipients can open the archive by double-clicking regardless the platform - Windows or OS X.

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!!!

Planned Order for a Product not being shown

Hi Experts!!
I am an ABAPer and I am new to SAP APO. We are now working on /SAPAPO/PPT1. When clicked on some quantity, all the planned orders existing for that product are being shown with respective quantities. Now, I am trying to create a new planned order for a product through FM BAPI_MOSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI3 by splitting the quantity among the receipts. I have gone through several posts and have written the logic. But the newly created planned order is not being shown in /SAPAPO/PPT1. I can't find it anywhere. Am I doing something wrong here?
Here I explain it with an example. I have an aggregated entry for the month of June with quantity 3000, which is already split under receipts 1234 and 1235 as 1000 and 2000 EA respectively. Now, I need to split it as 1000 EA for each planned order and hence am creating a new plord. I am using same FM for changing plords as well with quantities as 1000. So, now both the receipts are being shown with quantity 1000 and the aggregated value as 2000... and the newly created one is missing. But I need the new one to be displayed and the aggregated should be 3000. Why is this happening? Am I missing something?
I already have posted a query that is related to this total requirement. Change Receipt Quantity for Planned Order in LiveCache . This has the first part of the total requirement. Just provided for extra info, but not related to this issue however.
Please help me out. Your help is highly appreciated. Thanks a lot!!

Hi Srinivas,
With prior experience, i am sure that the BAPI SAVEMULTI3 can be used for Creation & Change.
I dont think,the FM's which you are using, are recommended by SAP. So , try to use BAPI most of the time,as it ensure data consistency.
As you told, order is not flown to ECC, but visible in APO, i would suggest you to check the importing parameters of the bapi, like EVENT CONTROL ( should be '1' ).
and COMMIT_CONTROL(should be 'E').
Also, check your queues after execution of bapi. you should find your change pointer in the inbound queue of R/3 System. Do let me know if you still stuck.
Thanks,
Santosh KB.

PDF Export Options not being Shown

Need to export to pdf again. Last export was for only 6 pages, as a test. Now want to export the entire document. However, only 6 pages are created in the export. No options to revise the pages, are presented.
The iD app is acting strangely, in that many other options are not being shown. Also, on loading a document, there are notes about hyphenation and missing LILO. Beginning to believe I need to reinstall.
Pleae advise best course of action at this point.

before you reinstall, see if trashing the prefs helps. See Replace Your Preferences

They should be. If you have lost bookmarks try restarting Safari:
1. Press the Home button
2. Double click the Home button to bring up the "Recent Apps" tray.
3. Touch and hold on the Safari icon in the "Recent Apps" tray until a "-" appears.
4. Touch the "-" to terminate Safari.
5. Restart Safari and see if your Bookmarks are back.
