Windows Mail - Sent Folder (Hotmail) not showing mail > 30days old


Hi All, I've searched wide and far online for an answer but have had little luck - looking to one of you for some guidance here if possible.

Issue:

• Sent mail folder in Mail application on Windows 10 doesn't sync more than 30 days of send messages for Hotmail account.
• Only Hotmail account affected on Mail application; other sub folders sync as far back as possible
• Gmail account is fine - can see years of sent email

Context:

• I have 2 accounts added to my Mail client on Windows 10 - 1 hotmail, 1 gmail
• I have Outlook mail installed on this machine also
• Windows 10 Pro
• Dell Precision M3800
• Upgraded from Windows 7 -> Windows 10

Tried:

• Removing and readding the hotmail account
• Tried removing and adding the account as POP3 account as well as the built in Hotmail autosetup link
• Removed all email accounts and readded them
• Ensured that the application has permission to access calendar (have seen this online in a few places as a possible problem maker)
• Checked that I have my sent messages (I can see them in Outlook 2013, but not in Mail -> Sent folder)

All help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!

 

Sent e-mail problem on Outlook Mail for Windows 10

Hi ....sorry for the delay in responding.

• I am using Outlook Mail for Windows 10 and cannot send e-mails. They all end up in "Drafts" folder.
• I periodically reboot the computer, so I'm sure there was a Windows update and it might have occurred just prior to the problem.
• I'm not receiving any error messages.
• I went to Outlook.com on the web and successfully sent e-mails, with and without pic attachments to my e-mail address *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, the same account on Outlook Mail for Windows 10.

As an aside, I also use Windows Live Mail and it will not send an e-mail with a pic attachment. Instead, it sends it to the "Outbox" folder. Until that entry is deleted in the Outbox folder, no e-mails can be sent. Once deleted, e-mails sans pics can
be sent I'd love to have a fix for that.

 

Windows 10 mail app sent e-mails folders

I seem to have 3 folders listed under my account which receive (or not) sent e-mails. When I send an e-mail from Windows 10 mail app it seems to be random as to whether it ends up in 'sent' , 'sent messages' or 'sent items'. This is annoying as I have
to search all three folders if I am looking for a particular sent e-mail. Is there any way of forcing Windows 10 mail to use just one? What happens if I delete 2 of these folders? will Windows 10 mail app use the remaining one or simply re-create all three
folders? I have not tried this as I do not want to lose messages that are distributed between all three folders. Thanks for any help on this
