I've searched for how to do this and found old posts that says there is no
way ... I'm sure there is because Outlook does it itself (it copies a sent
message to the Sent Mail folder and it's marked as read). If not via menus,
there must be a way via VBA.

Has anyone figured out how to do this? E.g., I copy all sent messages to an
archive but I can't mark them as read ... i want them marked as read.

Thanks
