Hi all,
I have several emails that I wanted to reply, and I did click "reply" and then wrote something, but I did not have time to finish... then I click on "save", and in the evening, I closed the outlook because I slept... now I reopen the outlook in the morning, and I want to find my saved unfinished replies that I was writing... But where to find them? I have a "draft" folder, but those saved emails do not seem to be in this folder... wherelse could they go? ---------------------------------------------- This is annoying... is there a way to automatically save all unfinished emails that are backlogged and later when I open Outlook they pop up automatically, as a reminder? I have to shut down the computer and sleep, right? I have tried hibernation/standby, due to some weird reasons, the PC automatically wakes up during mid-night... and make sounds, which is very annoying... So I need a feature that in Outlook that can save yet-to-reply/backlogged emails and later on pop them up automatically as a reminder... thanks a lot! |

no I could not find them in the drafts folder now...
what's the problem? "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote in message ... they should be saved to drafts, especially if you clicked save. If you opened the message from another app, using the File, Send menu, they would be in the inbox. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "networm" wrote in message ...

Have you looked into you outbox, I have had them saved there for some
reason or another at times. If the message is there and you feel uncomfortable about it, do what I did and just move that puppy on over to the Drafts. Don't do what I did and forget that it's there in Drafts though as I tried to find the email that I recently sent to the Drafts, I found one email that I missed finishing to send to my Dad for the idea that he could Machine embroidery the Hogwarts patch for his Grandchildren for Christmas and I would knit some Harry Potter Scarves for them. *sigh* |

Are you using a view that hides some messages? Are you using more than one
copy of outlook? What type of email account is in your profile? is outlook closing properly or does it crash when you exit? -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "networm" wrote in message ... no I could not find them in the drafts folder now... what's the problem?

Secon thought, did you maybe click on file and then save? if so I
believe this defaults to your documents in Outlook. I hope this helps. |
