I have the following settings for my Gmail account

imap: imap.gmail.com port: 993 connection security: ssl/tls authentication method: oauth2

I can send emails but I cannot get the messages to save in my sent folder. How to fix it?

It's possible you are not subscribed to the right folder. Sent emails in Google accounts show up under the special [GMail] folder.

See the attached screen capture.

From http://kb.mozillazine.org/IMAP:_advanced_account_configuration :

Thunderbird defaults to only showing subscribed folders. That's a way to manage the clutter when you have a lot of remote folders and you don't want to see all of them in the folder pane. You subscribe a folder by right-clicking on the remote Inbox, selecting "Subscribe", expanding the Inbox tree in the window, and subscribing whatever folders you want. You can configure it to show all folders by unchecking the checkmark at "Tools -> Account Settings ->Server Settings -> Advanced -> IMAP -> Show only subscribed folders".
