Hi Maxim Masiutin,

Monday, December 12, 2005 
you let us know -at least in parts- :

>   What's the point of th Drafts folder if there is "draft" per-message flag 
> in the Outbox?

It is a point of view: You expect from a folder named "outbox" to
contain only mails ready to be sent within the next cycle. It is
clearly, simple and there is nothing more to explain about it. And a
folder named "draft" says what is in it: raw mails, partly finished, not
yet in the condition to be sent, or, expressed in more general terms,
still on the way to become a real mail -or not and in that case ready
for deletion. No one would have to care for correct flags to be set or
not, no one would have to check an outbox for messages in another
condition that the only logical one: ready for sending.

Alter the feature to MAU's suggestion which is smarter, simpler and all
is plain to see and no one needs a helpfile to refer to (which is still
missing)

Rubbish. Following MAU's idea would kill two birds with one stone. Why
do you spend so much energy to such an extent in keeping a widely
unwanted feature alive instead of giving the smarter idea a try?
