Sent email intermittently going into wrong accounts sent folder

When I send an email from one POP3 email account, it sometimes gets put into
the sent folder of a Hotmail account a few accounts down. The from address
shows the from address from the first POP3 email account. Any ideas?

Re: Sent email intermittently going into wrong accounts sent folder

Are these emails you are sending from one of your accounts to
another of your WLM accounts? It is a known bug that WLM doesn't
handle this scenario properly.

Re: Sent email intermittently going into wrong accounts sent folder

No, they are all to other peoples email addresses not in WLM. I just sent 5
test emails to addresses not in WLM and 2 of the 5 went into the wrong sent
folder. When I resent both of the two they went into the right folder. Very
strange.

Sorry, I don't know why that is happening. I haven't seen that
bug myself.

Re: Sent email intermittently going into wrong accounts sent folder

Think I found the cause, I went to each accounts Tools > Accounts >
Properties > General Tab and the Hotmail account had the POP3 email's
address as the from address. I had changed it awhile back when the POP3 SMTP
was down and forgot to change it back. After changing it and sending 5 test
emails they all went into the correct sent folder so it must be the cause of
the problem.
