[Evolution-users] Different columns in different folders?

[Steve Phillips]

Sorry if I replied incorrectly.  Should be good this time.  ;-)

That is interesting.  I checked the settings and the sent setting was
set to On This Computer/Sent.  There is no Sent folder there only "Sent
Items", which I believe comes from the data I imported.

The sent items were being placed in the Sent folder for each of my two
IMAP accounts.  I guess that is the fallback if the specified folder
doesn't exist.

I set them explicitly now and I do see that the Sent folder icon
appears different.
