Everytime I save a draft of an HTML message I worked hard to format, quit
Entourage, and reach it, the message loses all its formatting and get's half
converted to a text file. This is an embarassingly bad bug. What is MS
thinking? At a minimum the Drafts folder should function as advertised,
preserving the draft you've created.

And for everyone except you, it does work as advertised.

Can you supply a few more details about what version Entourage/OS you are
using, including what updates have been applied.

Then, take one of these mangled drafts, open the source view window and
paste the source into another message in this thread? Then, we can take a
look and maybe see what's wrong.
