Can I look at messages in Sent Items, and see who it was sent TO?

[Guest]

In Outlook, messages are saved in the Inbox showing who sent them, and can be
sorted by sender. Sent Items are also shown by sender, always me, which is
useless. How can I get messages saved showing the recipient, so that
specific messages can be found without having to check every message ever
sent, in order to find one sent to a specific person?

Or... choose Custom... and reset the view.

Interesting - in my version of Outlook 2003, the DEFAULT setting of the Sent
items Folder is to show Recipient. Try right-clicking on the Column Header,
choose "Customize View" and removing the "Sender" column and adding the
"Recipient" column......
