Isisombululo esikhethiwe

When you send from webmail, sent messages are copied to Sent, but they won't show up in the Sent folder that is subscribed in TB until TB syncs with the IMAP server. You can force a sync by selecting the folder in TB, or syncing automatically when getting new messages by checking the box 'When getting new messages...' in the folder's Properties (right-click the folder).

Problem was the wrong folder. When sending from webmail, emails were copied to folder "sent items" and i wasnt subscribed to it.
