MacMail Drafts

When I open MacMail it creates and empty Draft. It creates an empty Draft every time I send an email. The accumulated, empty Drafts are annoying and have to be deleted.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

I would look for an email stuck in the outbox of one of your email accounts. Remove the unsent email typically fixes the issue.


This can happen for various reason— ex sent email with an attachment too big and gets rejected by the mail server.

Delete the mail from the outbox.
