I want to retrieve from my Sent Items folder emails to particular persons so that I can save them in a sub-personal folder for that person. I want to retrieve all files in my Sent items folder to a particular person and then highlight them and drag them to the sub-personal folder for that person. How do I do that?

Hi jaxson1234,

No need to do any dragging! Once you've created the folders, you just need to add rules that say "Apply this rule after I send the message: sent to ###; move a copy to the ### folder." Then click on "Run Rules Now...", select the rules you've created, change the "Run In Folder" to "Send Items" and click "Run Now".

By default, the rules will also be applied to every message you send from then on. If you want your sent messages to sit in Sent Items and only move them to the personal folders every so often, just make sure you don't tick "Turn on this rule" when you're creating them.

Hope that helps.
