When creating new email subfolders under "Sent Items", then clicking into the new folder it always defaults to "From" "Subject" "Received" rather than "To" "Subject" "Received".
Therefore I have to manually replace "From" with "To".

Can't the system do this automatically by recognising that the subfolders are within "Sent" as I already know they are from "ME" and would rather it default to show who I am sending "To".

Sorry for the explanation, hope it makes sense!

If I remember correctly - you need to change the view and remove the from column and add the to one.

 

you can right hand click on the headings and change displayed fields

 

Do I have to do that every time I create a new folder in SENT though
(Sorry I'm at home now so will have to try any suggestions at work tomorrow)

yes mate, i dont think there is a way to inherit the folder structures.
(i stand to be corrected on this)

a quick google search says you can customise the view of the folder

have a looky here

InformIT: Navigating the Outlook Interface > Creating Custom Views


i'm sure you can fiddle around and get it working!!
