When I send an an email through my gmail account via the Outlook IOS mobile app, the sent email shows up a draft in gmail on my desktop browser. It doesn't show up as a sent email in thread. How do I make sent emails show up as sent and not as a draft?

I tried deleting and reinstalling Outlook on my iphone X. Interestingly, it worked for the first few minutes and then it started saving as draft again. I'm not sure if there was some minor update in between hard re-installs.

    Same behavior. My account is hosted with G Suite for Business, running Outlook for iOS.

    The same issue here with Microsoft Outlook for iOS. 

    Every email I send ends up in the Draft folder. 

    App was updated on 25.2.2020 to version 4.26.0.

    I've been having the same issue. I manage multiple emails, why I use the outlook app on my iPhone. The same issue when I reply it just saves as a draft in Gmail, however I know it's being sent out. I'm not sure if it's a specific issue on gmail because we use the Enterprise Plan. I hope a tip and a fix is soon. Been using the app for a few years now.

    I am having the same problem. It started today. I use my Gmail account as the main account in Outlook. I checked my account in the Gmail app and found the same thing.

    Anyone else find any sort of fixes or good workarounds? now our CEO is having the issue and I had to have him go back to Gmail app for iOS. Not exactly a fix but its working for now.
