The problem there is with the “Sent” folder in Microsoft Office Outlook. When you send an email, Microsoft Office Outlook saves the message in the “Sent” folder. Since you are using IMAP, when the email client saves the message in that folder, it is synchronized with your email account.
If Microsoft Office Outlook throws this error, it means the email client has a problem saving the message in your email account’s “Sent” folder. One possible reason for this is if your mailbox is full or you no longer have available space. You can fix this by emptying the “Trash” folder or the “Deleted Items” folder. Another way is to save the message to a different folder.
To change the folder where sent items are saved, in Microsoft Office Outlook, click “File”, “Options” then “Mail”. Under “Save messages”, check “Save copies of messages in the Sent Items folder” and “When replying to a message that is not in the Inbox, save the reply in the same folder”. If the problem continues, just turn off saving sent items.
Click “File”, “Account Settings” then “Account Settings”. Next, select the IMAP then click “Change”. Check “Don’t save copies of sent items” then click “Next” and then “Done”.
