I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about... Can you be more
clear as to exactly what you are doing, what behavior you see, and what
behavior you expected?

I am not sure why you are importing and exporting your mail so much, but
the "Sent Items" folder works just like every other folder except it
shows the To: field instead of the From: field. Same with the Outbox.
OT: Did you know you could simply move a message to the Outbox to have it
get delivered for you next mail run? The was cscsend works, it simply
delivers any mail found in the Outbox...

Use the To: field for what? Folders don't "use" fields... They simply
display them... The Sent Items and Outbox folders display the To: field
instead of the From: field, since for all intents and purposes, all mail
in these folders should be "From:" the same person (different accounts,
sure, but still...) So I think it is much more useful to see who the
message was "To:"

Yeah, for anyone not using a real DB to store the mail, switching away
from CSV to an SQL database is always an eye opener...
