Hi all,
not sure if it is the right place to ask, but I wanted to know the following:
When you send an email, does a copy of it go to the "sent folder" after it is sent by the server, or after you have klicked the send it but before the server has actually sent it off.
I realise that it depends on how things are programmed, but does anyone have a guess on how things are done in major companies, most notable for yahoo mail?
The reason I am asking is because I have sent an important email, but the yahoo servers were very slow (as they often are it seems) and nothing seemed to happen. So I logged off, and decided to relog and send again. But, I checked my "sent folder" and the email I tried to send was already there. However, I had not recieved the confirmation that the email was sent. So I am not 100% sure either way. I would rather not send an other copy or ask them. It could be perceived in a different manner then intended.
Cheers.

. Much thanks for trying though. I will wait today, if maybe someone has something to say and then pick yours as the solution, as it kinda is one.
