Movement of email msg to draft folder

I use Hotmail as my email provider. I have Windows Vista Home Prem. 64 bit.

Everytime I reply or create a new outgoing msg. the msg. is automatically moved to the Drafts Folder after only 2-3min. Since I am a very slow typist and take time to research info it is not good for me.
Can someone tell me how to lengthen the time to about 10 min. before it transfers the msg.?


Thanks.

Are you using Windows Live Mail as your email client? If not which client do you use?

I am not familiar with Hot Mail, but I do know Windows Live. Windows Live mail, does not move the mail to the drafts folder until you close the Live Mail Window. It will ask do you want to save, if you say yes, the mail goes to draft folder. The WLM will then close.

Go to your Hot Mail account, there will be a tab help, or options. Go there look for the setting that will change the time that it takes to put the mail into drafts.

I did not help you much, but I did give you a lead as to where the problem lies. If I had a Hot Mail acccount, I would check and give you the information, but I am not able to.

Buffdriver look around the mail site. Look for help or options or preferences. If you cannot find anything, I will try to think of another remedy.

I will see what I can find out. It will be a bit difficult since I do not have an account with them. I will not leave you hanging. I will give you an answer either way.
