My MSN sent mail isn't showing up in the sent mail folder. Is it somewhere else?

Not that I'm aware of. Make sure you have the option to save your sent mail selected - it may be off by default.

Hi

I recently created a new email address to use on windows live messenger.

However when I sign in with my new account it does not alert me to new emails but it does show them in the windows live today box.

Its quite annoying as I have to keep checking the live today box to see if I have new mail as it does not even display how many new emails I have on the mail icon under my name.

Any help as to how to fix this would be appreciated.

Thanks

For some reason MSN has deleted all of my sent email and I did not change any options. Also my stored folder has been emptied. Why has this happened? I had saved very important emails. How can I retrieve these emails?

Can't seem to find where to check the option information given.

my sent items box is not saving my sent mail but I know it is being received when sent. The appropriate tag is ticked and worked perfectly until a few days after broadband was installed. Help please!
