I suppose the question is quite clear.

If I compose a normal email message, then it is automatically saved in
the Drafts folder, and I can save it there without sending it.

Is there something similar for news messages?

Sure, why not? File | Save As | Draft. It'll show up in the Drafts
folder for whatever account you use to post to the given newsgroup.


I don't have a "Draft" folders in any of my newsgroup accounts. When I
save a news message without sending it, it goes into 'local folders';
I can open it from there and post it easily

I think that for news ... the draft folder is under "Local Folders"

Yeah, by default unless the user changed it to somewhere else in "Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings".

Yes, that is true. However the message will not be saved is sending of the message fails. Even worse, if the message was saved as a draft prior to trying to send it, the saved message will also be lost.

Just to do a test, I save this message ... The Draft box of the "Local Folders" contain this message... then I cut internet .. then I try to send. "***"

The sending failed with my message still on the screen. (and still in the Draft box of the "Local Folders" - but with the text before the "***"
I reconnect internet then I send this message.
