In the the account properties for that account (Tool--> Accounts, then
select account and hit 'Properties') there should be an IMAP tab. Make sure
that you check the "Store special folders on IMAP server" selection and
input the folder name for sent mail.

If you have a mail server that keeps all of its special folders, such as Sent
Items, Trash (Deleted Items), Drafts, etc. as sub-folders of the Inbox
folder, then in the same dialog that Joe mentions, you must put Inbox in the
"Root folder path" field.

While you're there uncheck the "Check for new messages in all folders"
checkbox, because who needs that slowing things down? (Unless your server
handles your spam folder and you want to check that without clicking on it.)
