====Sent Items====
As Outlook 2003 and previous do not have support for assigning a Sent Items folder at the mail account level, we must emulate it via a message rule;
#First make sure there is a Sent Items folder in your IMAP mailbox.
#*If you have not subscribed to the '''Sent''' folder yet use Tools-> IMAP folders.
#Open the rules dialog by clicking on '''Tools''' -> '''Rules and Alerts'''.
#If you see a drop down list at the top, make sure it is set to the Inbox of the IMAP account.
#Click the '''New''' button to start with a new rule.
#Select '''Start from a blank rule'''
#Select '''Check messages after sending'''.
#Click '''Next'''.
#Select the option: '''through the specified account'''
#Click on '''specified''' at the bottom of your screen and select your IMAP account.
#Click '''Next'''.
#Select the option '''move a copy to the specified folder'''
#Click on '''specified''' at the bottom of your screen and select your '''Sent''' folder your the IMAP account.
#Click OK when you get the warning about the folder not supporting Unicode (IMAP accounts in Outlook 2003 doesn’t have support for Unicode).
