Anyway to change outlook sent items to display TO instead of FROM?

I think that is absolutely USELESS and can't believe MS has been doing that for all these years. We all know who sent the mail, we need to see where is it going. Is there a registry key or something?

Considering TXT messages show received u would think it would be a registry..


Thanks,

I'm sorry but i'm missing your point.
When you send an email you can see who you sent it to
When you receive an email you can see who sent it to you...

where's the problem?

when i send a message from microsoft mobile messaging and i choose receive as the sort, only my name is present. when i choose from, my name is again the only one present.

i confirmed this on both my Vogue, Raphael and 700wx. The only way i can see who i sent the message to is by opening the actual message.

lol this is strange.
I never stumbled into this kind of problem. I see exactly what needs to be seen on my polaris.

I understand you ran through the whole menu to check for options concerning this thing right?

Yes i checked the settings. What's weird is that all of my devices to do this, but yours doesn't.. makes me wonder if it is because of US windows mobile vs EU windows mobile....

when i look at my sent items for my exchange email i notice that regardless if i choose received or from it shows only me. Received = when message was sent. From = who sent the message. Both displays me as the sender instead of displaying who i sent it too.

i think the problem might be with messaging sync to an exchange server since this doesn't happen with txt messaging. can someone else confirm this that is using a non US based ROM?

Thanks,

Hi all

This is probably well and truly solved by now looking at the date but in case anyone googles this the fix is:

Open your sent items folder.
Now look at the tool bar and you will see a small text box with messages in it.
There is a drop down arrow that will display a menu when its click on.
select "sent to" to resolve the issue.

Thank God someone else has this problem. I think those that say they don't have this problem don't actually understand what you're saying.

This has been bugging me for years, and is one of those things that proves MS doesn't really give a crap about WM.

Open your Sent Box
Right-click on the bar that shows "Arranged by:"
In the menu that opens, click "Custom..."
Under "Description," Click the "Fields..." button
Under "Available Fields," scroll down until you see "To"
Select "To" and click the "Add" button
"To" should appear under "Show these fields in this order:"
Select "To" and press "Move Up" or "Move Down" until it appears in the order in which you want to see it.
