But that flag is not a draft flag it is a parked flag.

How do I know looking at the flag if it is

1) a message that is finished waiting to go but is parked.

or

2) A message that is not finished.

This 'outbox protection feature' would be useful but it is no replacement
for a draft folder.

If a message is in the outbox it is ready to be sent. It might be parked
because you do not want to send it now.

If a message is draft folder it is there because it is not finished with.

Both are very different trying to combine it with 'parked' messages in the
outbox proves that you have not thought the different statuses that a
message can go thought.

I have asked for a draft folder since I started using the bat in beta
(about ver 1.3 I think) I have not said anything recently about it because
it has always fallen on deaf ears.
