When you schedule an email in gmail it is supposed to save your email in the drafts folder until it sends. Nothing has gone wrong, but due to how we integrate with gmail this is a restriction of the scheduled emails that they have to stay in the drafts folder. After it hits the scheduled time, they will move from drafts to Sent. You can see the email has been scheduled within toutapp.com and it should also have the label Tout Scheduled Email. Alternatively you can schedule from toutapp.com and they won't show up in your drafts in gmail.

Add Email to Salesforce allows you to push any emails you receive in gmail to your Salesforce account. We do the look up based on the sender of the email, so we can currently only use this button for emails you received - and not emails you sent. We are working on changing the functionality to allow to log emails you have already sent, but in the meantime, if it didn't automatically log when sent, or show up in your failed activities in the activity log you can forward it to your Salesforce BCC email address.

As a company, we work very hard to ensure that our deliverability rates remain high. Still, though, there are certain user behaviors that can trigger emails being sent to the spam folder. Here's what we recommend: Keep your emails short and informal and paste your templates as an email you've written before. Make sure you have a fully completed email signature with a physical address. Use Google or Outlook to send your emails, or set up an SMTP to deliver messages through your own servers.
