Outlook 2011 and keeping sent messages

[AnnaS]

I am using Outlook 2011 with Exchange acct. I would really like to have a copy of my sent mail automatically placed in my Sent Mail folder "On my computer". I can't seem to configure a rule that will do that. My sent mail just keeps getting placed in my in-box "On my computer". Any suggestions?

I'm not at my machine, so I can't check it, but you shouldn't need a rule, it should be a configuration setting in preferences.

Thanks. I checked Preferences and couldn't find a way of accomplishing this. I think this may be a side effect of working with an Exchange account and wanting to keep emails locally as well.

I'm not familiar with using Exchange on the Mac side, so if you want things local, is there an equivalent to "use cached Exchange mode" or saving to a .PST file on the Mac version like there is on the PC side?
