my sent email folder is lost

in my thunderbird emil the folder of the sent message is gone!

I read in the forum and i just tried this solution:

"SOLUTION: In the account settings for "Copies & Folder" under "Place a copy in", uncheck the default "Sent folder on " and check the "Other" option, then select the Sent folder from the drop down along side. I suspect this problem is because the PlusNet setup places the Sent folder as a subfolder of the Inbox not alongside it. I am assuming the default option is not expecting this."

without any effects

Can you add a screenshot - with the place where (you remember) that the SENT folder was in the past? If you add - please let the all structure to be visible (you might hide email names/accounts off course) Also - that email account is set as POP or IMAP?
