There are only two options for OE column headers.

Inbox - Deleted Items - and User Created folders share the same layout. If
you change one, you change them all.

Likewise for Outbox - Sent Items - and Drafts. Change one and you change the
other two.

In Outlook Express, if I create a folder under "Sent", when I change the
its
column setting [by View - Columns],
it change the "Inbox" as well!! However, how can I set the column order of
the folder
which under the "Sent" folder the same as "Sent" Folder?( I think this
just
make sense)

There are only two sets of mail folder headings (View, Columns):
- Sent Items, Outbox and Drafts use one set
- Inbox, Deleted Items, and all user created folders use the other set

Even though a user created folder is arranged as a subfolder to Sent
Items, it is still going to use the same column headings as the Inbox.
What you can do is add both the TO and FROM columns to the Inbox so that
the TO column will be available in the other folders. I also find the
TO column useful in the Inbox since I can easily spot mail sent
specifically to me rather than a group.

The OEX program lets you individually customize the folder columns on a
per folder basis:
