I am running Outlook 2007 under Vista Home Premium. The e-mail is working
OK except for one matter. When I write an e-mail message to someone, it
goes into Outbox, then into Sent Items. After that, I move the message to
my inbox.

Why?

I like to move certain sent e-mail messages to the inbox so I can follow up
to see if a reply has been received or not received. I find this convenient
to the way I do things. Also, I was afraid that e-mail messages left in the
Sent Items folder might be automatically deleted by the system.

I don't mind (too much) that my procedure is questioned without suggesting
answering my problem. I still would like hear whether Outlook has a problem
or whether the way I am doing things if causing the messages to disappear.
Thanks.
