How to change location of sent messages?

When I first started using Outlook 2003, I created a work account mapped to
my work e-mail address. Now, under All Mail Folders on the left, I have
Personal Folders (automatically created in Outlook, I guess?), Archive
Folders, and my work folder.

There's an Inbox and a Sent Items folder in both Personal Folders and my
work folder. The work account is the only one that I use but when I send
messages from it, the message gets put in the Sent Items folder within
Personal Folders, not my work e-mail where I would like it to go. Any way to
change it so that messages I send through my work e-mail go into the work
Sent Items folder?

There is only one delivery location in Outlook and the Sent Items folder in
the delivery location will always be used. However, you can create a rule
that will copy the sent message to the folder you want. If you disable the
option to save all sent items in the Sent Items folder and provide rules
that do the copying, you'll have what you want.
