Where is the "on my iPhone" sent folder? That was somehow clicked and so I've lost a few sent emails because I didn't realize, until too late, that they weren't going to my IMAP sent folder as they were before my phone changed this on its own.
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.4
Thank you for trying to help me so quickly! Unfortunately, there is nothing on the top left of my screen after I've opened my mail app. There is only the 'edit' on the top right and then the big 'Mailboxes' in the top center which cannot be clicked on...
Then just scroll down until you see accounts and follow the directions I gave you above from there.
Perhaps my phone is not showing me what yours shows you? Or else I've not made myself clear?
I have my regular IMAP sent folder, but I cannot find the one mentioned in advanced settings of the "on my iPhone" sent folder (My iPhone set the tick mark to THAT one instead of the sent folder lower down in advanced settings that's supposed to be the IMAP sent folder). That's the one I cannot find anywhere.
IS this what you are looking for?
That's what I'm referring to, the problem is I want to get into that top folder, where is THAT one at? It ate a few of my sent messages, and I really need to find them and get them into the correct IMAP sent folder.
For me it shows up when I click on the account on this page:
I was excited there for a moment. Unfortunately, it's not there for me. Hopefully this is not where it was supposed to have gone, because it would appear as if those emails are lost forever.
Thank you for your assistance, I do greatly appreciate it.
No problem, try deleting the email account from your phone and re adding it.
