I'm getting the error message below when save a draft email. I have IMAP account set up on Outlook 365.

"The item cannot be saved because it was changed by another user or in another window.  Do you want to make a copy in the default folder for the item?"

Thanks,

    The work around on the link 'Unable to save changes to a draft email in Draft folder for IMAP accounts' doesn't work for me!

    Hi Pittman,

    Yes, you can switch to monthly channel by using Office Deployment Tool (ODT) or Group Policy. Here is the article for your reference: Change the Office 365 ProPlus update channel for devices in your organization
