I've read the original query from romanroad (4/23/24) and the replies, which related to gmail. I have the same problem but with a slightly different set-up, which those replies don't cover.
My query relates to Thunderbird 128.5.1esr (64-bit) using IMAP to link with Outlook emails.

[1] "Right-click the account in the Folder Pane, Subscribe..., uncheck the Sent folder and check the Sent Mail folder."
[2] "Also, make the change in Copies & Folders in Account Settings
re [1] When I Right-click the account in the Folder Pane, Subscribe..., I can uncheck the Sent folder BUT there is no Sent Mail folder. (Folders are Archive, Deleted (with subfolder POP), Drafts, INBOX, Junk, Notes, Outbox and Sent [as well as 3 personal folders].)
Both Outbox and Sent were checked. If I uncheck the Sent box, leaving Outbox checked, the Sent folder empties completely; if I then check it again, it refills all the sent messages from years back (presumably from Outlook because of IMAP.)
re [2] In Account Settings I had unchecked the "Place a copy in:" option - but am still getting duplicates.
I do want a copy of what I have sent - just not two of everything.
