Introducing the Draft and Sent Folders
Yahoo! Mail provides five permanent folders that help you manage your email messages—Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Spam, and Trash. The Using Folders to Organize Your Email tutorial introduces you to each of these folders and shows you how to create and use personal folders to organize your email.
In this tutorial you’ll learn about using the Drafts and Sent folders:
Drafts
folder—Use the Drafts folder to save messages that you are in the
middle of composing and aren’t ready to send. You can open the draft
anytime, continue composing, save a draft, and finally send the
message when you’re ready.
Sent
folder—Use the Sent folder to store copies of messages that
you’ve already sent. If you like, you can open a copy of a sent
message, change a few words, and send it to another person. A copy
of that message will also be saved in the Sent folder.
