When I send an email message from my gmail account using TB, a copy of the sent message then appears in my inbox. How do I turn that off? I have 11 email accounts on TB and this is the only one this is happening in. Also, on this same account there are 2 "sent" folders. All of my other accounts only have one. How do I make sure that all of my sent mail goes into just one of these folders? Related to this, in settings, under copies, then "when sending", do I click "send folder on......" or "other"? If "other" then which folder? Thank you for any help.

Gmail IMAP accounts automatically copy sent messages to Sent Mail, so this is the folder that should be subscribed, and 'Place a copy in' in the Copies & Folders section of Account Settings should be unchecked. That will also disable the 'Place replies in the folder of the message being replied to' setting.

Thank you for your reply. Much appreciated. However, I did as instructed above, but nothing changed. When I send a message it does go to my sent folder, however, it also comes to my inbox. How do I get it to stop coming to my inbox?

Do you have an add-on like Copy Sent to Current installed?

None that I did (unless something happened "underneath" that is not visible to me). I also checked the add-on list and do not see anything listed there.
