The past two weeks (since finally bumping up to SL), I've run into about a dozen instances where I've responded to an email, heard the outbound whoosh, but no copy exists in the Sent folder (major problem since these are work-related responses).

When I click on the curved arrow that signifies a reply was sent, here's what pops up:

"Mail was unable to find your reply to the message [xyz]. You may have deleted the message."

Uh. No. I haven't deleted a thing (and heaven knows I wouldn't).

This is happening in three different email accounts (spanning two domains, all IMAP). Preferences for two of the three accounts--different domains--are set as:

Mailbox behaviors > Store sent messages on the server: NO
Delete Sent messages when > NEVER


Preferences on the third account, which shares one of the above domains:

Store messages on the server" > YES
Delete Sent messages when > NEVER


I'm seeing lots of posts in the Apple Support forums about this, but no solutions. Anyone else run into the same problem (and maybe...maybe...have a fix for it)?
