SYMPTOMS
When you are viewing messages in a folder within the Sent Items folder in
Microsoft Exchange, the "To" column is missing. Instead, there is a "From"
column, which is always blank.
CAUSE
By default, when you create a new folder in Microsoft Exchange, the
following columns are displayed in the folder:
Importance
Item Type
Attachment
From
Subject
Received
Size
However, in the Sent Items folder, the "From" column is replaced with the
"To" column, in keeping with the folder's functionality. When you create a
folder within the Sent Items folder, the new folder uses the default
columns listed above, rather than the default columns for the Sent Items
folder.
RESOLUTION
To enable a "To" column, follow these steps:
- Click the folder in the Sent Items folder.
- On the View menu, click Columns.
- In the Show The Following Columns box, click "From," and then click
Remove.
- In the Available Columns box, click "To," and then click Add.
- Click OK.
