Sent Items not working with a POP account ?

Hi,

I have configured a mail account with POP information. I can see that
if I am sending an email from WLM or from the webmail interface, the
"Sent Items" folder is not synchronized.

If I configure the same mail account but with IMAP information,
everything is working correctly.

Is it normal ?

Thank you

Re: Sent Items not working with a POP account ?

Yes. There is no synchronization of POP accounts; you can only
download from the account's Inbox, so drafts, junk, deleted and sent
items will only be visible where the action took place to put them
there. That's why IMAP was invented. You can elect to keep a copy of
incoming mails on the server as a backup (depending on how much
storage the POP account allows) or if you want to download them to
another machine - Account Properties > Advanced tab.
