Steve,
THANKYOU for the suggestion!
When Messages box came up, the drop down only included New Messages and Inbox.
I tried your suggestion and waved the cursor over "Messages " a few times CLICKING IT and Sent Items mysteriously appeared.
All my "Sent items were listed.
It is real late but I will power down and try it again.
Will send results before I turn in.
Roger
Update: Powered up, drop down showed all three selections. Again, THANKYOU! 
Good Night uhhh Good Morning!
