Thank you
I spent quite some time looking in all the wrong places for ways to set
this up. Of course now Notes doesn't seem to offer its sent folder as an
option to the IMAP client. These things always seem more difficult than
they ought to be.

I thought I saw the ability to send all your sent items to the server
by modifying the send folder option.
