Difference between outlook 2003 and Thunderbird

[Johnny Chow]

Hi,
I am newbie to outlook 2003. Somehow, Outlook 2003 (with Office 2003 SP1
and IMAP configuration) crashed on me quite a bit after I migrate from
Outlook XP. I would said 5 times a day then I installed Thurderbird mail
client which it is very stable. I found out Thunderbird would keep sent
emails to "sent items" under email server. Outlook 2003 keeps the sent
emails to "sent items" under personal folder. Is there a way to change
default configuration of outlook 2003 to keep sent email under email server
instead of personal folder (on hard drive). Any tips will be apprecaited.

Thank you in advance,

Johnny chow

You can add the email account field to the Sent Items view or use a Rule to
copy sent messages to different folders based on the email account.

And in terms of stability, make sure that you have diagnostic logging
turned off (Tools -> Options -> Other -> Advanced Options...). The Windows
component that is used to log the IMAP protocol crashes periodically...
