Then you need to click on the 'Settings' heading at the left:

which will take you to the following page. In order to make sure that you don't save a copy of e-mails that you send, you must un-check the checkbox that says "When sending a message place a copy in __________":

Then click 'Save Changes' on the bottom and from that second on, when you send messages there will be no records of it kept.
