Saving to draft folder

I'm running Office 97 on Windows NT4. If I open word and type a document and then chose to send it to a mail recipient, the normal Outlook email box opens with the document inserted as an attachment.

If you then chose the Save option the message is saved directly in the Inbox and not in the Drafts folder as you'd expect.

Is this just the way Office behaves or is there anyone who has seen anything similar before?

Cheers

Mine does the same thing, I hadn't noticed before. So far I don't see any way to change it.

Give me ambiguity or give me something else.
 
Yeah - I've tried it on about a dozen PCs and it's the same on every one. The user swears blind she was able to do it a few days ago - yeah right!.

I thought I had all those users! :)

Same thing happens here. I'd never noticed it before either. I even tried adding text to the message but, even though it no prompts if you want to save changes, it still saves to the Inbox.
