Mauricio: Well, I went into my g-mail account on the web, and deleted the five messages that existed in my drafts folder the other day.
After that, however, a message I sent to the JFW list also appeared and got stuck in my Outlook 2016 drafts folder, and I can't seem to get rid of it in Outlook. It sure is a pain to have to go into my web-based g-mail account to clean things out of the draft folder on occasion.

Using Windows 10, JAWS 17, and Office 365, there was an occasion that a message or two would not leave the drafts folder from within Outlook 2016 despite the fact that the messages were sent. Like you, deleting did not work; Shift+Delete was also tried to no avail. Rather than doing the legwork to locate a potential setting configuration in Outlook, I signed into my Gmail account using the web interface and deleted the offending messages from the drafts folder. I have since not had this problem.

I am having an interesting problem with my personal g-mail account in Outlook 2016 in Office 365 here. For reasons I don't fully understand, I have 5 messages stuck in my drafts folder, that I can't seem to get rid of. These are messages that were successfully sent over the past few days, but they still appear in my drafts folder. I have tried deleting each item, esentially moving them to the deleted items folder and emptying that folder with no luck. I have even selected and individually deleted each message. When I have individually deleted each message, I was informed that the deletions would be permanent, which was fine with me. The items get deleted from my deleted items folder, and even temporarily from my drafts folder, but within a few minutes, they re-appear in my drafts folder again, as if nothing ever happened. How can I get rid of these messages in my drafts folder once and for all?
