At some point, we’ve all had the need to refer to an email previously sent and upon going to our Sent box, realised our emails haven’t been saved

But fear not, the fix is simple, it’s a setting within your mail options!

If you are using the All-New Mail, do the following:

1. Click on “Options”, this can be found at the top-right when in Mail.
2. Select “Mail Options” from the drop-down menu.
3. On the General page, the second option is a tick box to “Save a copy of the message in the Sent folder”. Ensure there is a tick in this box.
4. Click on “Save Changes” and then head back to your Inbox.

If you are using Classic mail, do the following:

1. Click on “Options”, this can be found at the top-right when in Mail.
2. On the General page, about halfway down, is a tick box to “Save a copy of the message in the Sent folder”. Ensure there is a tick in this box.
3. Click on “Save Changes” and then head back to your Inbox.

I hope that some of you find this tip useful

Happy Emailing,
