sent folder and sent emails
Thank you in advance for any help.
I am using several folders in my inbox to archive sent and received emails related to specific jobs
but when I am trying to find all my sent emails for a specific period, I can not simply got to sent folder and look them up.
it appears that whatever email I send out using "save sent item to" function under the "Options" tab does not get saved under sent folder.
how do I look up all my sent emails in one location?

- Create a Power automate flow to move the sent items.
Thank you Victor
I am not trying and planning to move any email anywhere
I just like to see them in one location to review all sent emails in a specific time frame or specific day.
I have over 50 folders. most my sent emails if not all get saved under specific folder using "Options" tab and then "Save Sent Items To" function.
so when I do that, the email does not show up under default sent folder. If I try to see me sent emails from yesterday, I have to check every single folders!
does this make sense?
there has to be a simple way for this. I just never bothered before and it is not getting little issue for me and I have to waste a lot of time doing it the other way.
Thank you
- If you have only one email account in Outlook, try to tag sent emails using categories but keep all them in a single Sent items folder,
- You can simply run a mailbox-wide search (as in change the search scope to "current mailbox") and use the "from:you@domain.com" keyword to only retrieve messages sent by you.
- I think I tried that several time and result always comes in strange and I can never see all my sent emails in one location.
I though there would be an easier way
gosh, I miss IBM Lotus Notes!!! lol
