I was/am using Windows Live Mail which has/had Hotmail installed on it.   A while back the mail WOULD not download into hotmail, so I've had to go on google and get it that way (tho sometimes it comes GOOD on WLM).    For some reason, the sent file stays empty and the one way I can see what mail I have sent on hotmail is to go on google.   I have now installed Windows 10, and the same thing happens - no sent mail, YET surprisingly today the hotmail did download on WLM.    I'm sure I don't have a setting which says not to save sent items, or if I have, where do I find it?Just a question for clarification.  What do you mean by "I've had to go on google and get it that way"?  Google is a company.  Their search engine is accessed by going to google.com, a website run by Google.  Hotmail is not a Google email account; Google's email accounts end with gmail.com.

Google has a web browser called Chrome.  So, when you say "I've had to go on google and get it that way", do you mean you are using Chrome?  If so, then please say Chrome so that you are using correct terminology.
