By Heinz Tschabitscher, About.com

Have I or haven't I? If I have, what have I?

The first question — whether you have replied to an email — is answered by the small leftward-swung arrow in the message list in Mac OS X Mail.

But what about the second question — what exactly you wrote in your reply? Do you have to dig and search the Sent folder? No, the small arrow has the answer to this question, too.
