Hope someone can advise me (or point out how I'm missing the bleeding obvious :eek: ) please.

I have 6 separate IMAP email accounts I've set up on my new iMac. I have created two folders (mailboxes) locally to store mails I wish to keep. One for mail-in and the other for mail sent. Within these are sub-folders for e.g personal, financial, general etc.

The mail-in folder(s) are fine as when I look in them, the mails can be sorted by date etc and always show in bold who sent it. The problem is when I look in the sent folders as they always show my name as the sender when I would want them still sorted in date order but with the name of who I sent it to in bold to easily find the mail I need. After 20+ years with windows and outlook, I know how to just change the default columns to show exactly what info I need, but I can't for the life of me work out how to do the same with Mail.

Any help much appreciated :)
