I think I've had this problem before (in earlier Mail versions), but I can't remember what I did to fix it.

Basically, no emails I send from Mail 2.0 get saved either locally or on the IMAP server, even though I have the "save sent messages on server" box checked. This feature lets me see all emails I've sent from either my computer or when logged into the web interface from any computer. It worked fine before I upgraded to Tiger. Is there some trick to regain this functionality?

First choose to "save sent mails on the server" in the prefs: accounts panel.

Then goto to your imap sent items folder and right click (Control-click). Choose thr option to use this folder for sent items.

Your sent items will continue to appear below along with the sent items from other addresses, but if you use your webmail interface you will see that mail is also saved to the server as well. By the way, the Sent Items folder will seem to disappear from the subfolder list in mail.
