Hello! Outlook is configured to accept mail through IMAP. However,

server?


Not true. IMAP accounts leave messages on the server. Outlook
creates a local copy of the messages, but it does not remove them
from the server unless you explicitly delete and purge the messages.


What the hell was I thinking when I wrote this?

The real answer is that for Outlook prior to Outlook 2007, you must create a
rule that moves a copy of the message to the IMAP Sent Items folder for
outgoing messages.
