Hello
Because the email must be reviewed and potentially changed by a responsible person before sending.
- Understood. Now please explain what happens if you look at the Drafts folder using OWA.
Do you see a draft messages created by your app there? Can you modify them and send them?- Yes, I see the draft message created by our app.
In OWA everything works as expected: the message shows and the send button is visible right away.
But we face the issue when using the outlook app: the send button is not visible. User has no possibility to send the message (except forwarding the message). It looks like the draft flag got lost during EAS.
Our application creates a dedicated folder for such emails, because we found out that the standard draft folder does not replicate using EAS.- Wait a minute. If you create manually a draft email in OWA, do you see it in Outlook as a normal draft email?
