Emails getting closed while typing and moved to "Draft" emails folder.

Emails getting closed while typing and moved to "Draft" emails folder.

I am now having the same problem that I have seen many other people complain about.  But,  I looked through the forum and just saw many complaints and unresolved issues.  My emails are getting closed while typing and moved to the "Draft" emails folder.  Now, I have a pile of draft emails across the bottom of my screen.  I have cleared out the "Draft" folder, and re-booted the program.  No luck.  This is happening while I am using Chrome to access connect.xfinity.com.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

@user_4spwht Thanks for bringing your email concerns to our attention. I cam understand how frustrating this can be. This can happen from a few things such as incorrect SMTP server settings, firewalls or antivirus software blocking access, scheduled message settings etc.

Lets work together to figure this out and provide you with a resolution.

What browser are you using? Have you tried using a different one?

When did this start?

Is it all messages or just some?

Do you have any additional email clients set up such as Outlook, iMail etc?

It appears to be all of them, but, i was trying to send emails as fast as possible, so it may be just some

No additional email clients

Thank you for that information! As you mentioned above you were using chrome. By chance have you tried the same actions while in a Incognito windows (Ctrl + Shift +  N) to see if it results in the same issue?

I'm having the same issues.  I was using Chrome and it seems to have started yesterday with one specific draft email.  Even after deleting all drafts of that email and sending off the final version of the email, it still kept saving multiple drafts of that email.  I did go into a Incognito window and had no problem opening up the sent email and creating drafts.  So it seems it has to do with either a specific email and/or using Chrome in the non-Incognito window.

Do you know of any fixes?

I have the exact same problem. The weird thing is it comes and goes. Never had the problem until a few weeks ago. Drove me crazy - Comcast was no help at all. Then it went away. Came back today. On all three computers:I have two at work and one at home. All desktop. I have read the history on this problem - been around for at least three years. What the heck?
