Thunderbird Sent Folder always activated on OSX

Hi guys,

I have a bug noted in Thunderbird for OSX:

Thunderbird for OSX always send messages to Sent Folder, even if not checked to do so.

I use BCC to send copies of my emails to Inbox, but everytime I send some email a copy is placed in Sent Folder even if I already set to not put a copy there. It seams that uncheck the checkbox to don't do so have any effect.

Who's the provider? Microsoft and gmail both copy sent messages automatically to Sent and Sent Mail, respectively, independent of TB settings.

The Windows version and Linux one this doesn't happen. I have the same settings on the 3 platforms. It may be a small bug on OSX version of Thunderbird. I always use BCC to my Inbox, and with Sent I have duplicated messages. The messages number counts increase when I move Sent messages to Inbox even if I have BCC.
