Emails stuck in my draft folder

Hello

I have emails that appear and disappear in my draft folder but aren't appearing in 'sent.' It's hugely worrying and has happened twice now. They don't have large attachments but there is one recipient in common - could it be something to do with their email address?

    Windows 10/Classic Outlook: Same problem. Have tried multiple "fixes" to no avail. Unbelievable really, that Outlook, an email program used by millions for both personal and business, can no longer consistently do something as simple as--um, send an email...

    This is a huge problem. i just started using new outlook and it sucks. many emails go to draft after i press send. i've missed meetings and lost work due to quotes not getting to the client on time.

    the other issues is that it doesn't Auto-capitilize letters

    theres no send/receive button

    you can't drag a file onto an email or copy and paste it

    double click doesn't open a file

    i haven't been using it long, but i can't see any benefits accept the look, and i have to figure out where you hid all the buttons i'm used to

    can i install the old one again ?

    I'm experiencing the same. It's been months since this issue was raised, and still no solution. Sigh...

    I am also having the same issue when using the new Outlook app on my laptop. Seems this issue have been going on for some time now with lots of other people reporting this same issue.

    Microsoft it would be most helpful if you fixed the issues many of us have reported.

    It might be best not to release an update version of you aren't prepared to fix the issues.

    Please look at this as a matter of urgency.

    Thanks
