Sent Messages ?

[Freight Train]

Hi,
   Is there anyway to view the messages I sent ?
I can view all I've received but can't see any way to view the messages I sent ?
Am I missing something here ?
                                                              Thanks,

1.  Hover over "My Messages" in the top menu bar of the forum (4 over from Home).
2. Select "Read your messages" from the pulldown menu.
3. You should see a list of messages you have received.  At the top of the list is another menu bar, with "Messages" outlined in orange.  Hover over that.
4.  in the pulldown menu that appears, the bottom selection should be "Sent Items".  Select that.

That should do it.

Worth mentioning that when messaging, if you don't click the little box on the lower left before sending (Save a copy in my outbox) - you won't be able to find it.

Thank you nickelplate759 & MarkS for both your replies as your answers were both helpful but I think I need to rephrase my question at hand. Say one of you sent me a message and in return I answered your message with a reply. When I hit the sent message button it says afterwards message sent. Hypothetically say I mistakenly thought I might of provided you with the wrong information in return ? Now I want to go a view this message sent to see if it is correct or not ? Now if I under you MarkS correctly if I don't check the box to send a copy to my email I will not be able to view this reply message sent, correct ?

Correct, unless that box is ticked any PMs you send to others (whether it is a new message or reply to someone) a copy of your sent PM will not be saved for you to view.

I got tired of having to remember to keep ticking that box when sending out PMs that I found a way to permanently check that box, so all my sent PMs are automatically saved.

Hover over the "Profile" in the top menu. A menu will pop up. There click on "Account settings".
On that page hover over "Modify Profile" (highlighted) in orange. A menu will pop up. Select "Personal Messaging".
On the next screen tick the "Save a copy of each personal message in my sent items by default." box, then click on "Change Profile" button on the lower right. From that point on all your sent PMs will be saved to the place pointed out by nickelplate759.

Thanks Peteski !
Just went and modified my account settings and check the box you mentioned so I get copies of my sent messages too saved.
