I have been using Thunderbird 102.14.0 for some time but it has suddenly stopped saving sent files to the sent directory. The file is sent to the recipient.

the message I get:- Your message was sent but a copy was not placed in your sent folder (Sent) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the message locally to Local Folders/Sent-anathan@iinet.net.au.

That is not a TB error, but a message of fact. If the network is busy or your server is temporarily slow, this message appears. If you know you're on a slow server, you can set the sent folder to local. I have experienced this periodically and then it goes away.

How does one set the sent folder to local.

Highlight account on left side of main pane. Rightclick and select 'settings'. Then select 'copies&folders' and then select to save Sent folder in Local Folders.
