Sent Mail corrupted?

Guest

I just started using Outlook. I was previously using Eudora.

When I started up Outlook and sent message for the first time, all my sent
messages are going to a folder called "Sent Items-may-2002" I didn't create
this folder. It was there when I first started Outlook. WHY DON'T THE
MESSAGES GO TO "SENT ITEMS"?

The stupid program won't let me delete or rename "Sent Items-may-2002"
although it did let me rename or delete "Sent Items".

Outlook 2003 SP2

In Outlook go to File\Work Offline. You might want to close Outlook after and Open it while OFFLINE and then try and delete the file

Try starting Outlook once with the /resetfoldernames command line switch.
What type of account are you using? SMTP/POP, Exchange, or IMAP?
