How to share drafts in Zoho Mail

Drafting your email can be tedious at times. Be it writing an email to your team or boss, choosing the right set of words to deliver the right tone is very tricky. When you can get the help of your colleagues, the task becomes slightly more bearable. However, copy-pasting your content in a text editor and going back and forth to collaborate with your co-workers will only add to the tediousness of the task. To avoid these complications and help you draft your email at its best, Zoho Mail's share draft feature will let you collaborate in the comfort of your mailbox.

What is the 'share draft' feature?

With Zoho Mail's share draft feature, you can,

1. Share your email draft with your colleagues.
2. Discuss suggestions, corrections, and so on in the comment section.
