Hi, I just downloaded Thunderbird again after not using it for 3 years. All of my inbox messages loaded nicely. But, I don't have any sent mail from the day Ieft T-bird to now. Do sent messages sent from other providers show up in the sent folder? The inbox was able to sync all new messages, why not the sent folder. Thanks.

My guess is the account is configured as POP and you have been leaving mail ion the server when you get it with other devices.

If the account is set up as POP then only the inbox is ever accessed on the server. That is the only "folder" POP knows about. Any send mail is also only saved locally.
