Dear Experts
Using G-suite for email services and were accessing using webmail, would like configure this account in email client ms outlook while configuring selecting manual setup and configured the account and able to download all the inobox messages, but sent messages did not download it is very much need to bring all those sent messages to ms outlook sent items, please suggest how to achieve this. Thanks in advance.

I don't think POP3 works that way.

If you're using POP3 then all your sent items will reside in your mail client - they are not intended to be stored in your server.

Some options:

1). Upgrade to IMAP - it's far superior to POP3.

2) Download your inbox, then clear it in Gmail, move your sent items to the inbox, then download them too. Good in theory, but I haven't ever tried this.

3). Export your Gmail, download it, and extract locally.

Hope that helps,

Alan.

There is no direct way of opening the MBOX in Outlook.
Did you try that Google tool? Its pretty straight forward.

If you are a G Suite admin, you can export the mailbox in PST format using Vault.
