My point was, if you want this to be done *without* TB having to save it to the Sent folder itself, it would essentially *have* to be done during the smtp transaction - there's simply no other way to do it. > Saving a copy of sent mail is the MUA's job, not the MTA's. It is in most cases, yes (someone already pointed out that Exchange has the ability to save the Sent message without the client having to upload it again) - but again, my point is, why does it *have* to be that way. 'That's the way its done now', or 'that's the way it's always been done' is a stupid reason (by itself) to dismiss the idea of a potentially new feature. -- Best regards, Charles
