    Check your settings on your profile and select the save to outbox. I believe you also get the save message on each message you write before sending. It is below the body of your message.

    They may not be getting saved. In my mailbox the default is to save them so I always "go advanced" and chose to not save them--otherwise my mailbox would be maxed out even more often than it usually is. It is possible that your mailbox default is to NOT save your sent emails.

    Sorry but I have no idea how to change the default setting, if it exists.

    Well, I finally, after all these years, found how to change the setting. Go into your profile and then click on General Settings and then go to Private Messaging and at the bottom of that section you can choose either to save or not save sent messages.
