Sent folder in Thunderbird, not syncing in Godaddy (IMAP Account)
I have Thunderbird on multiple computers. I am finding that the "sent folder" on all computers running Thunderbird, sync OK. But I cant see the emails sent from my iphone in the computers "sent folder" or vise-versa. If look at the email's "sent folder" from godaddy's web email page, I can't see the emails written and sent from my computers, and I only see the ones sent from the iphone... I'll like to have the sent folder synchronized across all computers and iphone for the same account. I've selected "sent" in the list of folders to synchronize, but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
Please help... am I missing something?

Hi Matt, This is what my screens look like: Hope you can shed some light on this...
Pablo it may not matter but your email address is showing. I dont' know if you particularly want that. You may however delete them, load them in ms paint and smudge out the email address and then load them .... or not! Whatever. lol

done thanks!
I also use godaddy and imap syncing. Whenever I send email from my mobile device it ends up in the "sent items" folder instead of the sent folder. I sync that folder across all my devices in addition to the sent folder and I see all my emails

That actually explains a lot.
Obviously Thunderbird and godaddy are not on the same page here, so lets make them play together.
- First, copy all mail from the send folder to the sent items folder
- Right click the account in the folder pane, and select settings
- Select copies and folders for the account.
- In the entry for sent, use the drop down to change the folder name to be used from Sent to sent items
- Click Ok.
If you do not see the sent items folder
- Right click the account in the folder pane.
- Select subscribe and subscribe to the Sent Items folder.
