How to work with drafts?
Emails you start writing are saved as drafts. Who can do this: a user with write permission in the mailbox. When a draft is sent, it is removed from the list. The Drafts folder lists these emails; click one to continue where you left off, and delete drafts you no longer need. In a shared mailbox, if someone else has also opened the same draft, a conflict warning is shown.
Steps
Open the Drafts folder on the left 1. Each row shows the recipient, subject and number of attachments.
Click the draft you want to continue; the writing window will open with the draft's content.
To delete an unnecessary draft, click Delete draft on its row 2 and confirm.

Shared draft conflict warning
A draft labelled On server can be opened separately by multiple people in a shared mailbox — each person gets their own editable copy. In this case, a warning banner appears above the compose window.
Yellow banner: another user is currently editing the same draft. If you both send, the email may go out twice.
Reddish banner: the source of this draft on the server has already been sent or deleted by someone else. If you send it anyway, the email will be sent a second time.
