Messages Not Being Copied To Sent Items

Are you talking about Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail ?? None of the
products you mentioned exist . . . . .

Windows Live Mail does have a Sent folder on the left side under the account
(just like Outlook Express) and will contain a copy of the sent email.
Perhaps you need to click / double click on the account name to display the
folders (Inbox, Sent, Deleted, etc.).
