Hello,

I've been experiencing an intermittent problem this morning where the function that automatically saves a message I'm writing as a draft, instead sends the message to the recipient. You can imagine how frustrating this sounds and I can assure you it very much is. I cannot figure out why this is happening and am wondering if anyone has experienced something similar. Right now, it has happened twice consecutively while writing a message to multiple recipients. The message was originally filtered to a local folder and I replied to the message from there. The "Write" window does not close when the message is sent. I have tested with an e-mail to myself and this message auto-saved to my Drafts folder with no issues. Tested again with the same message, using the same method except I removed two out of three recipients that did not need to receive a "test" message from me just in case it did it again but once again, it saved to my Drafts with no issue. I just want to find out if this was a fluke or if there's something legitimate here.

Thank you.

I have seen reports of auto saving for the sent folder instead of drafts. I have not seen a cause but fixing it appears to be restating to drafts folder to something else and back again in the few cases this has occured.

Just remember Ctrl+ Enter is the short cut key to send. I have no issues with that, but I am always changing case because I keep hitting the cap lock as well as the A. Holding Ctrl is easily done with the saucer under you tea cup. Makes a mess of windows log in often.
