WM6 and OL Questions

I am not sure if these are PPC or Outlook questions. On my VZW XV6800
(WinMobile 6 and Office Mobile) I have two problems with my Outlook Sent
Files folder:
1. E-mails I send from the device do not show up in the Sent
Files --until the following day. I often find it necessary when away from
my office/desktop to either resend mail or to forward to a 3d person a copy
of the e-mail I sent to somebody else. Actually, this may also be a problem
of Intellisync, the software (now owned by Nokia) that is used for wireless
sync. I could copy myself on all my outgoing e-mail and clutter up my inbox
but that's not a very good solution.
2. E-mail that finally shows up in the Sent Files folder cannot be
sorted by addressee. The default is sorting by sender. I understand that
Microsoft set it up that way, but unless you are a real cynic it's hard to
believe that any software designer or programmer at Microsoft thought
telling me that I am the sender of the e-mail I send from my cell phone
would be useful information. Odds are, if I am looking at the Sent files I
am interested in a particular message I sent to a particular person.
Any insights would be appreciated.

That has never happened to me with my Exchange account or any of my IMAP
accounts. I assume it's an (another!) Intellisync issue or an issue with
your e-mail provider.

Agreed, but that's the way it is, unfortunately. That one, at least, IS an
MS issue.

Are you using some sort of Exchange Server Sync? Or are you syncing with
e-mail using ActiveSync/WMDC and syncing with the Inbox in Outlook on your
desktop? If the latter, your e-mails aren't sent, until you sync with your
desktop, and are actually sent from your desktop.

Thanks. The PPC/phone syncs wirelessly with Intellisynch. Sent items show
up on my office desktop within a few seconds of sending from the device. If
I am desperate to find the Sent mail soon after sending I can use the
internet to remotelly control that office desktop--but it is not fun.

OK, thanks. I'm not familiar with how Intellisynch works these days.
