Sent Folder for POP account missing

[Bradley Saunders]

Up to now I have used Entourage for IMAP and Exchange accounts and no
problem.
Today I configured a POP account. Everything went fine but when I send, it
stores the email locally under the "On My Computer" group.
How can I get it to store sent messages on the server?
Thanks
Bradley

You could use an Outgoing rule to direct all Sent messages (from that
account) to a server-based Sent Items folder. Tools > Rules > Outgoing.

Nice idea but how do I stipulate that folder in the Rules dialog?
It doesn't show up in the folder list though it exists on the server and I
would have to type in a path??

Any folder to which you have access *in Entourage* should be available
in that list, although you may need to scroll around a bit. You can try
actually navigating to the folder first to make sure it's active.
