    Since Nov. 1st there is nothing shown in my SENT folder although I have sent
    many e-mails. I like to check to see if my message went. Any clues?

    Open the Sent Items folder, then look near the upper right corner.
    Does it say "Hide Read Messages" or "Show All Messages"?
    You want the latter setting for what is known as the 'Current View'.
    Each folder saves its current view setting, so check that setting in
    every folder.

    Ensure that you are viewing the Sent Folder, then make sure that you have
    show all messages selected via View menu>current view.
