If I reply to an email using my windows phone the reply doesn't appear in the sent folder in Thunderbird on my PC. The mail server is gmail and the server is IMAP on the phone and on the PC. Also my contacts are not synced between the phone and the PC. Any ideas?

In Thunderbird, Tools > Account Settings > Copies & Folders for gmail imap account or right click on gmail mail account in Folder Pane and select 'Settings then select : Copies & Folders for gmail imap account Do not select/uncheck 'Place a copy in' gmail auto saves to it's Sent folder. click on OK

Did you have this setting already?

Then make sure you have actually subscribed to see the gmail Sent folder.
