Oulook Savings in Draft Folder

[Octavio]

When I send an e-mail using Outlook 2007, one copy also is store in the
"Draft" folder and it appears duplicate in the Search Folder until I erase
the contents of the Draft Folder.
Why it is necessary to have a copy in this Draft copy also?
Where can I disable that?
Thanks in advance.

It's not typical for sent messages to appear in Drafts. They should appear in
Sent Items. Does this not happen? What type of account are you using? POP?
IMAP? Exchange? Hotmail? Do you have any rules? Click Tools>Options>E-mail
Options>Advanced E-mail Options. Do you have the "Autosave every..." option
enabled?

As for the search folder, it is not a real folder. It just shows you all the
other folders that contain items that match the search criteria. That search
folder must have a search condition that matches the item and that includes
the Drafts folder.
