I have 3 e-mail accounts in OL 2002. I've set up rules
for my Inbox to sort incoming messages according to
account and move them to account specific folders in my
Inbox.

I'm having a problem creating similar rules to sort my
Sent Mail by account. In the Rules wizard at the top
where it says "Apply changes to this folder:", the only
option is Inbox. I've tried selecting/
(highlighting) "Sent Items" folder in the Folder List
before I open Rules Wizard and I still only see the Inbox.

I went ahead and tried to create new rules using "Start
from a blank rule" and selected "Check messages after
sending". I've designated "through the specified account"
(Personal) and "move a copy to the specified folder"
(Personal Sent) However the only folders I can choose
from are the ones for the Inbox - I'm assuming this is
because on the starting screen Inbox is folder that
changes are being applied to. So, I'm not able to
complete the rules. Any thoughts?

While I can use the "Organize" feature to View the Sent
Items "by sender", I prefer to have separate folders and
have successfully set this up before.

Thanks for any suggestions.
