Look in the elmrc file for the section:
	# save a copy of all outbound messages?
	copy = ON

	# save outbound messages by login name of sender/recipient even if the
	# associated folder doesn't already exist?
	forcename = OFF
With these settings all the outgoing mail goues to the outbound-mail
folder.

Comment: Strange thing. You could specify a destination for your 
outgoing mail, but the flag to actually store it is NO by default!
