[imp] outlook to sent mail

[Robert Clemens]

Using IMAP does seem to work pretty well. I would've liked to figure it
out with pop though. It did save my sent mail. I'm not sure if it
doesn't save a certain type of mail or not. One thing I'm encountering,
is quite a bit of connections to the imap server when using outlook or
mozilla's email program to use imap. I had to jump my imap server
connections per ip up as well as increase the programs cache limit. I
think this will work for now. I seem to be overlooking it or something,
but is there an option somewhere where I can pick which folder to save
sent mail in through IMP?

Qmail is the right context for your thought.  IMP is just another email
client.

I would recommend using IMAP, and having Outlook access your IMAP
mailbox
folders.. BUT, Outlook cannot store some email on IMAP.  I can't
remember if
it's sent mail, or what, but Outlook doesn't let you use IMAP
completely.
