The short version

Add a To recipient, subject, or body, then close the compose window and check for Saved as draft in Emails or the Hub Message Center. If the connected sender is unavailable in Emails, reconnect or retry before leaving.

Check for Saved as draft before leaving an unfinished email. Saved drafts appear in Emails or in the Hub Message Center where you created them.

Save a draft

  1. Start composing. Click Compose and add a To recipient, subject, or body.
  2. Save the draft. Close the compose window and check for Saved as draft. This message confirms the save. In Emails, an unavailable connected sender leaves the draft open. Reconnect the account or retry before leaving.

Find and send a draft

  1. Open the Drafts tab. Open Drafts in Emails or in the relevant Hub Message Center. Each draft shows its subject, first recipient or (no recipient), and a preview of the message.
  2. Reopen the draft. Click a draft to open it back in the compose window, where you can keep editing.
  3. Send or discard it. Finish the message and click Send, or use Discard draft if you no longer need it.
Good to know

To remove a draft, open it and use Discard draft. To send it later at a set time, schedule the send. See How do I schedule an email to send later?.
