What happens if you View->Go To Folder...

then, in the dialog, expand local folders? Is your Sent Items folder listed?
Can you open it from there?

Re: How to show the hidden folder again in Window Mail

You may have Deleted it or Moved it.
Look in the Deleted Items folder, and all others...

Re: How to show the hidden folder again in Window Mail

Make sure it didn't get put under one of the other folders. Look for +
signs next to the folders and expand them and then see if you find it.

Re: How to show the hidden folder again in Window Mail

Thanks, I had a look and search each folders delicately. I do not think it is
the case where I missed place, deleted or cancelled it. I can still sees it
available in Windows properties under control panel. But thanks guys, for any
of ur suggestions.

Re: How to show the hidden folder again in Window Mail

So did you try following the advice about Norton to see if it will
make the missing folders reappear?

Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee
or Norton security programs. Those will need to be
uninstalled, not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see
