Sorting Hotmail Sent Items using Outlook Connector

[TheFrameGuy]

Using Outlook Connector with Outlook 2003 and my Hotmail account, when you
sort your sent items folder by the "to" field or "date" field, rather than
the "to" person showing up in the list, your name (the from) shows up in the
list. So looking at it, it looks like all the sent messages are sent to
yourself. Through my Exchange account, looking in the sent items folder I can
see who I sent the messages to. Is this a bug or some default setting? I have
seen this on 3 Outlook Connector installs.

I do think this is a bug of some sort, but if you right click on the headers,
you will be able to delete the "From" and "Recieved" header fields. In their
place I will right click and select "Field Chooser" and drag in the "To" and
"Sent" headers. After you make a change with this, you should probably go
back to your Inbox or another area of Outlook and leave the program running
for a while. I think it may need time to sync with the MSN servers or
something, but when I close Outlook right after making that change, it does
not seem to take. When I wait for a while before closing Outlook, it seems
to stay.
