Folder views in new folders changes randomly. Incoming view changes suddenly
to Sent view and visa versa. This is most annoying and compells me to have
all views combined Incoming-Sent views.
I can fix it for a while by starting outlook.exe /cleanviews but the cure is
only short term.
What is wrong with the stability of outlook folder views?

This is hopeless.
Nothing works - not even profile change.
Suddenly the folders under Sent start looking like Incoming folders in spite
of previous field selections.
I have no Exchange Server but my pst-files are in another server, not in my
conputer.
Could this cause the random changes in views?

It shouldn't, but network-hosted PSTs are strictly unsupported and are
subject to damage, so who knows?

Unsupported - not for customer needs but fot Microsoft wanting to compell us
to take the expensive Exchange Server instead. A small company doesn't need
it.
One reason for view distortions may be this:
When I mail messages outside my office (like this), I often mail a secret
copy to my working address.
Then in the office I move this message from the Incoming folder to the Sent
folder. This may puzzle the view creator.

Nope. Network read/write protocols are different than those used for local
read/write and less than ideal for PST manipulation.

So what? Difference doesn't make it impossible. It's the matter of will and
purpose.
PST-file is a monster. It should be split into several files.
We use Schedule in our small office because the calendar file is separate
and can be shared.
