Hi Julie,

I use Outlook 2010 for all of my email needs and it has worked well
for me. I do use the standard Windows keystrokes, such as Control plus
r for replying, Control plus f for forwarding, and Control plus Enter
for sending messages, but rarely bother with memorizing the specific
JAWS keystrokes, as I'm able to accomplish everything I need to do by
going through the menus. The message drafts should be stored in the
Drafts folder by default. I have heard that the layout for Outlook
2013 is a bit different,so I'm not sure if that   might be
contributing to your difficulty. Feel free to let me know if you have
any more specific questions though and I would be happy to help if I
can!

Best,
Katie
