When you close the compose box, Zulip stores the content in a draft, so that
|
|
|
|
|
you never lose your work. Drafts are saved for **30 days**.

Use `d` to bring up the list of drafts. From there you can use the arrow
|
|
|
|
|
keys, `Backspace`/`Delete`, or `Enter` to restore. A common pattern is `d` +
|
|
|
|
|
`Enter` to restore the last draft.
