In Yahoo Mail, Sent folder shows the record of e-mails you've sent.

In Draft folder, u can keep or save the selected e-mails u would like to save for future reference.



Good Luck

When you send an email it save a copy in the "Sent" folder. I like it as I can check an email I sent later to see what I actually sent.

IF, for some reason you type an email and need to go do something before you finish you save it in "Draft" later you can come back and finish and then send.

This how I use both.

The saved mails which haven't sent are Draft.

In Yahoo Mail, when you sent any mail to your friend it goes to Sent Folder, but when you only save the mail and dont sent it will go to draft folder.

What ever the message u will send to other will save in the sent folder. Here message will save after ur work is over.



In draft u will save the message before sending to anybody. this will help u to prepare document whenever u free and send when ever u will hook to the net. This will help u in power failure problems also.



U can get information when ever u want from the both folders also.

Send is just used to send the mail to the address mentioned in the "To" bar after composing.



Draft is used to save a mail which you have composed currently. You can use the mail later to send it to any one just by typing the address in the "To" box.



For eg. when i was searching job, I will create a draft where i would have attached my resume and I also would have typed in the subject and content box mentioning my status and the type of job i need and any other information.



So whenever i need to send resume to some companies, there is no need for me to attach my resume and type in the subject and content box. I will open the saved draft and just type the to address and will send it.



Got it?

Inbox stores the mails that you receive from others whereas Draft is the folder to which your composed mails get saved for your future use. You will have to click on save mail in order to save your mails.

If your ever typing an email with important imformation and your not sure and you have to go and check somewhere or with someone. Instead of having to start all over again, you go to your draft and resume your work.

The mails which you have "DRAFTED" and not yet sent are kept in Drafts......

You could use it as it says for drafts, but i think you can also use it like the saved folder to save your emails in.

Sent is a note that you've actually sent to the server for delivery.



Draft is a note you started typing and for some reason, never sent it to the server. This message has not been sent.
