Why are my outgoing messages not being recorded in the Sent folder?

I always thought that email messages went into that accounts Sent folder and not the Local Folders > Sent folder.

The Sent folder in Local Folders is where newsgroup messages I send get placed.

That's the way my SeaMonkey works anyway.

The Sent folder in Local Folders is a computer folder.

You need to configure the email accounts "Copies & Folders" settings to "Automatically place a copy in: "Sent" Folder on: Local Folders.

I always place the copy in the accounts Sent folder. It is the default location.

Thanks for your response to my message...very much appreciated.

I was up until after 1AM trying to track down the information you referred to in your message.  I did find the Local Folder that is located in my Profile.  Here is what it presently looks like:

It appears to me that everything is going into this display except Sent messages.  Thus, I continued my Profile search made...having a look at the Copies & Folder settings...here is what I found.

Copies & Folders
When sending messages:
Checked - automatically place a copy in
     Dot    -      "Sent" Folder on        Local Folders
         No Dot      - Other Folder        Not Selected
     Not Checked - Place replies in the folder of the message being
                       replied to
     Not Checked - Cc these email addresses     Blank
     Not Checked - Bcc these email addressses   Blank

Message Archives
Checked - Keep Messages archived in:        Active options...
     Dot     -     "Archives" Folder on    Local Folders
     No Dot       -  Other  Folder:        Blank

Drafts and Templates
Keep draft messages in
     Dot            "Drafts" Folder on:    Blank
     No Dot          Other Folder        Blank

Keep Message Templates in:
     Dot          "Templates" folder on:    Blank
     No Dot          other Folder        Blank

Not Checked Show confirmation dialog when messages are saved


I hope the above information displays properly.  I do not see what changes I have to make in order to get my sent messaged headed for my my profile.

Is this an email account?

Change the account settings to:

Copies & Folders
 When sending messages:
Checked - automatically place a copy in
Dot - "Sent" Folder on "the account and forget about Local folders"
