Missing Drafts Folder

[TPills]

Help! My "Draft" mail folder has disappeared. When the "save" icon is
pressed for unsent messages, a new blank "business card" appears in the draft
contacts folder. I tried "resetting folders" command per this thread and it
did not fix problem. For temporary fix I have changed setting for unsent
messages so they at least appear in my inbox. Any suggestions?

Outlook version? Account type? Navigation Pane view?

Outlook 2007. Used to interface with both Novell Groupwise and Hotmail
accounts. Navigation pane view is "Normal" with "favorite folders".

Note that there is a "drafts" folder under my "Personal Folders" but I can
only get messages into that folder by manually moving them.

Still trying to reestablish a Drafts Folder for Outlook.... having incomplete
messages go to inbox is not a good fix. Thanks

If your hotmail account has a Drafts folder, Outlook 2007 will never use it
unless you manually put something there. The only active Drafts folder will
be the one in your delivery location folder set (i.e., Personal Folders).
