Can you print a draft email in the New Outlook?

This is a real problem. It is often important to be able to print draught messages. Despite the instructions at the top, it is not possible. I copy and paste - but that is fairly suckful! In other respects I quite like the new Outlook - though I wish more of Word formatting stuff was available. But still, it seems faster and easy to use. But printing draughts is really important.

Yes, I have the same problem.

What's absolutely infuriating is that no-one from MS reads these forums.

If they did,, you'd expect them to have the good manners to respond, acknowledging the bug and let us know when it might be fixed.

Good job we don't pay for this, oh, wait a minute...

Hi Mark after almost 5 months from original 'query' I will not hold my breath for this problem to be resolved. I have tried using the new 'Outlook' Mail but give up in frustration with that too. Maybe another Mail program from another developer may be an answer, but I don't have the time to pursue that one, so ho hum, will just muddle along with what we have....I guess the sun will come up in the morning, at least that is something we can rely on.....

The only workaround I have found is to email my draft to myself, then print it once received.

Thanks Michael Doyle3

I had not thought of that simple solution. Originally the email was used as a template with variables altered as/when needed. By preparing a Word Doc and attaching that file to messages, it works very well, but for just general [1 off messages] your solution workaround is logical, but I had hoped the programing Gurus could have incorporated a simpler method, containing all the security covers required. :)
