Hi there I have Yahoo mail account which I use on my desktop but when I use the Outlook app on samsung galaxy with same email account it downloads my inbox but not my Drafts which I need too. How can I get it to do that? thanks
 
I don't think there is a way to sync between PC & Mobile.

Best way would just be to send the email to yourself and then copy it on your phone into a new email and resume editing from there.

Definitely would be useful to have. Was looking for it the other day whilst at work as it would have been handy to have to add notes to an email as I was on the go, but didn't seem to have a sync option for the drafts folder anywhere :(
 
I need drafts cos I need to send invoices every month stored in this folder. Makes me so cheesed off to see it can't be done. Potential noble prize for someone who can fix this
 
I wonder if you can try making a draft on PC then dragging that draft into a separate folder within your email?

Nothing to do with outlook more to do with your back end solution. Drafts are server side on an exchange back end. Your issue is the connection method and back end solution "yahoo" and not outlook.

What I'm saying is get a proper provider if using this for business, office 365 and hosted exchange and this problem goes away.

A free outlook.com account will do. It's been proper Exchange for ages now. Not sure if the Outlook android app syncs in real time. I used a paid app (Nine) which does. I started typing a draft in a browser on the PC and it immediately shows...
