How do I get the 'Sent' and 'Draft' folder to show up in the left menu column in a new gmail account??
I recently had help setting up a new business gmail account. For some reason the 'Sent' and 'Drafts' folder are not showing up in the menu on the left . I use both of these options a 'lot' to see what/when I sent something or to 'hold' a draft email I am preparing.
Please advise.

If this is a new Pop mail account, Those folders do not appear until you have actually Sent or saved a Draft email.
check settings:
Tools > Account Settings > Copies & Folders
- select: 'place a copy in'
- select: 'Sent' folder on the mail account
For Archive
- select 'keep message archives in:'
- choose ' 'Archives' folder on mail account
For Drafts and Templates
- choose 'Drafts' folder on mail account
- choose 'Templates' folder on mail account
- click on OK
If you have an IMAP mail account, you need to make sure you have selected to subscribe to see those folders. Then make sure your settings use those folders.
Tools > Account Settings > Copies & Folders
- select: 'place a copy in'
- select: 'Other' and choose the sent folder on the server mail account
- If you want all Archive, Drafts and Templates to also be saved to the server folders, choose 'Other' and the respective folder on the server mail account.
- Click on OK to save changes.

Info on IMAP gmail:
I note that you are using a gmail mail account. Please note that the gmail 'All Mail' folder is gmails archive copy of all of your emails, so if you subscribe to see this folder it will double the amount of space used. It is suggested that you do not subscribe to see this folder. Read section under 'All Mail':
