I tried to compose a draft message and add a .jpg to it, and when I drag that to my listview, I get the no-parking icon, i.e. it doesn't accept the object. Perhaps Outlook doesn't consider an attachment to a draft message a proper attachment? But it does show it.

Try using Event Tracking to see what, if anything, fires.
