Sent items show twice on MAIL (IMAP)

you can uncheck that box and still have all mail synced (even sent emails), but what I don't like is that the Sent folder is not treated as a sent items folder anymore by Mail if you do that. For me, one could uncheck that box, and should still have the option to use the Sent folder as a sent items folder without Mail keeping a copy of the sent email and there would be no duplicates. But as I said in my previous post, that seems not possible. Unless someone else know how?

I have same problem, anybody here has stopped to sending repited emails?

I have the same issue as well

Another issue I have noticed is that even when I uncheck the "Store sent messages on the server..." and save, it automatically pops back to being checked after a few seconds.

I experience this issue, too...

First I thought it's realted either to OSX Mail or MS Outook (for Mac) as I have both mail clients in use with IMAP Hotmail/Outlook configuration. Unfortunately it's not...

Conclusion, I am desperately lookin' forward to a solution for this, too!!!

I have the same problem...

I tried to create a rule to delete one of the messages but couldn't get it to work without deleting them all!

I hope someone comes up with a fix soon.

Yes it is true. This is new in Maveriks. You can't uncheck the option to store sent messages.

The fix should come from Apple, to treat the Outlook.com IMAP accounts in a similar way to Gmail IMAP accounts.

When MS get the renamed Hotmail working we will see, right now it is junk, nothing Apple do will fix that.

The option to uncheck Save on Server still works (with Imap systems that work)

Hi all.

I have the same issue with a little story. I was using Sparrow to handle my Outlook.com mail and noticed the same thing, sent items were shown double in the sent folder, first I thought it was a Sparrow problem so I changed to Mail, when I finished syncing the whole account I started sending e-mails to my different contacts and noticed the same problem, my emails were showing twice in the sent folder.

It is not a Mail settings problem, a Sparrow problem or any email app for that matter, it is something in the Outlook.com settings that creates a copy of the sent email, one with the receiver's name and one with my name. It is a Microsoft problem (one more to add to the long list.. ) and one we hope they'll fix soon. For now, lets keep it double.

Still why is it not happening when sending from the iPhone? ;-)

It doesn't happen on the iphone because ios devices connect via EAS/Exchange, which leaves it up to the device to save sent messages. When you connect via IMAP, Outlook/Hotmail saves a copy of the sent email on the server. This is left over from the days when they only had POP for desktop connections.

Either Microsoft has to give us the option to turn this off on the server side or Apple needs to give us the option to stop OSX Mail from saving sent messages onto the server.

Just wanted to try to draw some attention, I am also having this issue, and despite being able to de-select the "store sent messages on the server" button, this is not a good fix, as it thn removes my sent messages from the Mail application so i cant search my sent mail (something i often need to do).

Apple please help find a solution for this!!

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

I had the same issue with Outlook for Mac and was able to fix it. I went to Outlook/Preferences/Accounts, click on the account and then click on the advanced button at the bottom right. Click on the Folder tab and then make sure "Don't store a copy of sent messages" is checked. Save.

That fixed my problem. Hope it helps.
