When I send an email it automatically puts a copy in my Sent folder so I can access it at a later time; but yesterday this wasn't happening. What do I do to get this to work again and can I retrieve the ones I lost? Appreciate your help. Linda

Rich, Thanks so much they are all back and now I can find the emails I sent and verify that I did reply to my classmates. I am the contact person on our reunion committee and this is so helpful to me. Thanks for coming up with the solution. Sincerely Linda

Hi Linda. You're welcome. I'm glad. Thanks for reporting and marking the solution.
