Dave,

After looking at this further - I still think that different clients using
the same email 'space' is causing what you described. But, I just looked at
WebMail and it does not have the capability to 'hide' folders. Also, I tried
using WebMail to send a test email and it did put a copy in it's Sent-mail
folder. So ... it's a client-specific thing as to where sent emails get
stored. Just think of WebMail as another client that's 'locked in' to IMAP.

Later,
Gary
