Default How do I save emails in Activities folder?

What about the email addresses?

Basically, there is no "Activities folder." When you display a particular activities group for a contact, Outlook launches a search of the folders in that group for items that match the contact. For mail messages, the matching is done on the email address. If you change the address listed in the contact, you won't match items with the contact's earlier address.

Yes - the email messages are in the Sent and Deleted folders of my Inbox.
However, they are not in the Activities folder of any of my contacts. Thanks
so much for trying to solve this for me!

Are the email messages in question contained in the folders searched by the activities group?

Have the contacts changed email addresses?

I have found the Properties dialog for the Contacts folder, and gone to the
Activities page to check the settings for the Activities groups, as you
suggested. However, the emails that I have sent and received are still not
listed on the Activities page for my contacts. Any suggestions as to what I
should do now?

Sorry - I wasn't specific enough - how can I get emails to and from my
contacts to be listed on their Activities page. All the Activities pages
listed for each contact are currently blank.

There is no Activities folder (unless you created on by that name). The Activities page on a contact shows items in Outlook folders related to the current contact. For email folders, it shows messages to or from one of the contact's email addresses.
