How is a template different from a draft?

• A template is the basic message layout. It includes your background, fonts, block structure, and other formatting. Its purpose is to allow you to have a baseline when creating a message, so you can use the same layout whenever you need it without creating it from scratch.
• A draft is a message in progress that you haven’t sent yet. It gives you the ability to make changes in a message you started creating. You can come back and edit it multiple times before you send it.
