"Send" goes to drafts
Everything I "send" goes to drafts and doesn't get sent.

We think we’ve fixed this issue. Please let us know if you are still having issues!

Eset antivirus was causing this on mine - check your security products, its likely to be one of them sadly.

My outlook outbox keeps putting emails into the Draft folder instead of sending them. Please fix this - please please!!!

Same issue here as of this week, 12/14-12/18. Using outlook for mac, no problem with inbound emails but anything outbound just pops up in my drafts and will not send no matter what I try. I removed the account from outlook and logged in again, restarted, etc. My 2 other email accounts that are connected to my outlook app are not experiencing this issue, one is a gmail and the other is a microsoft account.

A fix for sent items appearing in drafts, even though they have sent. I go to' send/receive groups' and then 'Download Address book'. This doesnt clear the items already showing in drafts (they need manually deleted) but it stops it happening for any future emails going forward.
I have had the issue come back for a customer twice though a few weeks later even after doing this. But did the same steps above and it fixed it again, its been 2 weeks now since it last happened and seems ok.

When you reply to message it indicates Sent .Reply show up in Sent as well as draft folders. Draft always shows up twice. Message in Sent folder when selected is just a grey body, subject and address lines. Recipient receives nothing.

Fix it. I discovered that it was happening because my email space was full. I cleaned up a bit of space and everything works perfectly

Yep same problem for me! Not sending via outlook for android its getting stuck in outbox. I can then go into mail on mac and see it stuck in drafts and then send from there as a workaround but not ideal when working from mobile most of the time and unable to send emails!

Experiencing same issue. Random emails go to Draft with no message or warning - no pattern. VERY costly for time sensitive emails - had to re-schedule an entire Council meeting. At least provide some sort of warning message.

I am also having this problem with Outlook on my android phone. I need to be able to send emails for my work and they keep getting stuck in the outbox. It's creating a lot of problems for me.
