Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question
Tom, I have discovered the answer to your question I do believe. As it turns out, an IMAP account cannot save messages to the drafts folder by default in Outlook, and it cannot be made to do so at this point. As I stated earlier, they are stored in the Outlook Data File. Here is a link to some discussion on the Microsoft Answers website dealing with your exact issue: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-outlook/outlook-2010-imap-drafts-saved-to-incorrect/e6fd8117-8054-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5 This should clear the whole thing up for you. Unless Microsoft decides to change the way Outlook handles saved messages for IMAP accounts, this will not change.

I am experiencing a problem with Outlook 2010, that I can't seem to resolve. If I am writing an e-mail, and find the need to leave my computer before sending the message, I often like to save my message in the drafts folder. My usual way of doing this is to hit the escape key, at which time I will be asked whether I want the message to be saved. Of course, I respond by answering yes, thinking that all should be well. However, after I do this, I look for the supposedly saved message in my drafts folder, and it is not there. I check both my local drafts folder, and the drafts folder under my expanded outlook folders. The last time this happened, I even checked my drafts folder on the g-mail web site, under my personal g-mail account, and it was not there either. I have also checked my deleted items, junk, outbox, and saved folders, but no message appears there either. What makes this especially annoying is that I did not have this problem a month or so ago. I'm wondering if something has been updated in Windows so as to make this saving function less easy to perform? I posted this quiry several days ago on the other Jaws list j...@lists.the-jdh.com and although I have gotten several suggestions, none have worked thus far. One other note: I have tried the control S key command as a way to save

Gobi: I'm not sure my previous experience with Outlook 2010 agrees with what you are saying here, since I used to be able to save messages in the drafts folder of whatever e-mail account I happened to be in at any one point in time. Things changed for some reason a few months ago, and I find I can no longer do this. Why they changed as they did isn't clear to me, and I'm hoping I can get things re-configured to where they were previously.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question
Hi tom, It seems you have set up multiple accounts in your Outlook 2010. So if you do a control Y and then a left arrow you can then get to a list that you can select which account you are in. when you do this and do a test email to yourself and before you send it hit escape it should automatically go to draft or you will be asked if you want to save it. If you say yes then do another control Y and go to draft folder to see if it is there. Do this for all of your accounts and if the emails are not saved in your draft folder then something has been clobared (love that term). Of interest if you have multiple account email accounts you have to be careful in the lists to ensure you are in the right one for that account. I find the lists are not very well defined once you have more then one email account that you traverse back and forth from. robin -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Tom Behler Sent: December 30, 2014 8:50 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question Gobi: I'm not sure my previous experience with Outlook 2010 agrees with what you are saying here, since I used to be able to save messages in the drafts folder of whatever e-mail account I happened to be in at any one point in time.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question
Yeah, David, what you are saying is making some sense here. To answer your questions: When I open Outlook on my home PC, I automatically land in the inbox for my personal g-mail account. When I open Outlook on my new work laptop, I automatically land in the inbox for my work e-mail account. In either case, I can switch back and forth between both e-mail accounts on either computer. My personal e-mail account is a g-mail account, while my work e-mail account is an Outlook 2010 account created with Microsoft 365. In all cases, Outlook 2010 is how I access my e-mail.

Wow, this seems to be much more difficult than it really needs to be.

Why Microsoft feels the need to make changes that tamper with someone's e-mail folder structures is a major mystery to me.

Hi Tom, Here's a thought. If you suspect that what you are experiencing is the cause of a Windows update, or more specifically, an update to Microsoft Outlook,you could look through your list of installed updates,and un-install updates to Outlook to see if the desired behavior is restored. This could become time-consuming, but may yield the results you are looking for. Sometimes there are updates to Microsoft Outlook that are not for security, or even critical for that matter, and this is also true of the updates for the Windows operating system. If you decide to follow this path, just make sure you understand what you are removing before doing so. If you have any questions, just sing out!

I am experiencing a problem with Outlook 2010, that I can't seem to resolve. If I am writing an e-mail, and find the need to leave my computer before sending the message, I often like to save my message in the drafts folder. My usual way of doing this is to hit the escape key, at which time I will be asked whether I want the message to be saved. Of course, I respond by answering yes, thinking that all should be well. However, after I do this, I look for the supposedly saved message in my drafts folder, and it is not there.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question
Hi Tom try this way I saw the other message and remember a friend telling me that using alt F4 to save works and she has office 2010 business hope this helps you. One thing are you when opening office in the folders of your email address it helps. I use 2013 business and I have it open outlook by my email address and when moving around to different folders I use shift tab and use letter like D for drafts and then entre. I found this the easiest way to move around not control Y.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question
Louise: I just tried your approach by hitting Alt F4 to exit outlook. It asked me if I wanted to save my message, just as it did when I used the escape key normally, to which I responded Yes. Unfortunately, even with this approach, my message was not saved. I could not find it in either my local or g-mail draft, junk, saved, or spam folders. I simply can't imagine where these messages are going, especially since I told Outlook to save them in the drafts folder. On your second note, I, like you, find it easier to find relevant folders in Outlook by simply shift-tabbing to my folder list and accessing my desired folder either via the arrow keys or by first-letter navigation. Thanks for your helpful suggestions, though. I'll keep plugging away at things here. Hopefully others will have additional things for me to try. I'm also going to try to get some sighted assistance here to help determine what might be going on.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question
Tom, Thinking a bit outside the box now. What if you put some unique characters in the subject line of a test email, like XX - whatever is unique. Then do your usual ctrl S or your preferred save to draft method. Then do a search using the alt key to bring up the Windows 7 Search box, then enter the unique subject line test message string. Perhaps the search will disclose the location of your saved messages and solve the mystery of the missing (or AWOL) draft folder. Good luck!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Outlook 2010 Question
Bob: I tried this, but got to the windows 7 search box via the windows key, not the alt key as you suggested. I entered the exact subject line into the search box, which was xxx999xxx, but came up empty, and got the usual search again message. If I've missed something, or done something incorrectly, please let me know.

What if you put some unique characters in the subject line of a test email, like XX - whatever is unique. Then do your usual ctrl S or your preferred save to draft method. Then do a search using the alt key to bring up the Windows 7 Search box, then enter the unique subject line test message string. Perhaps the search will disclose the location of your saved messages and solve the mystery of the missing (or AWOL) draft folder. Good luck!

It asked me if I wanted to save my message, just as it did when I used the escape key normally, to which I responded Yes. Unfortunately, even with this approach, my message was not saved. I could not find it in either my local or g-mail draft, junk, saved, or spam folders. I simply can't imagine where these messages are going, especially since I told Outlook to save them in the drafts folder. On your second note, I, like you, find it easier to find relevant folders in Outlook by simply shift-tabbing to my folder list and accessing my desired folder either via the arrow keys or by first-letter navigation. Thanks for your helpful suggestions, though. I'll keep plugging away at things here. Hopefully others will have additional things for me to try. I'm also going to try to get some sighted assistance here to help determine what might be going on.

I am experiencing a problem with Outlook 2010, that I can't seem to resolve. If I am writing an e-mail, and find the need to leave my computer before sending the message, I often like to save my message in the drafts folder. My usual way of doing this is to hit the escape key, at which time I will be asked whether I want the message to be saved. Of course, I respond by answering yes, thinking that all should be well. However, after I do this, I look for the supposedly saved message in my drafts folder, and it is not there. I check both my local drafts folder, and the drafts folder under my expanded outlook folders. The last time this happened, I even checked my drafts folder on the g-mail web site, under my personal g-mail account, and it was not there either. I have also checked my deleted items, junk, outbox, and saved folders, but no message appears there either. What makes this especially annoying is that I did not have this problem a month or so ago. I'm wondering if something has been updated in Windows so as to make this saving function less easy to perform?
