If I switch to another task while writing an email, and I don't exit the email 
and save it as a Draft, I've never lost an email.  If, for example, I'm writing 
a message, and I directly switch to a task without exiting a message, when I 
return to it, it will just say "Email Message", and if I advance forward by one 
window, the message appears.  However, to make sure I don't lose messages, I 
always mark thec with Block markers and Paste them to the Clipboard before 
exiting them.  That way, if they somehow don't get into my InBox, I can just 
re-write the message, paste my previous contents into the new message, and 
re-send it.
