Which additional query is that?
Auto-save creates a current draft of the message being edited at the
specified time interval. If you have 'immediate delivery' enabled and
choose to send, the message is simply sent and the draft deleted. If you
wish to cancel the message, then a popup appears asking if you wish to
delete the draft as well. This is new and appreciated since I hated having
to go and manually delete the draft.
The problem now seems to be with deferred deliveries. There are two ways
of deferring. You could hit Shift+F2 which works just fine, i.e., the
message is placed in the outbox and drafts removed, no prompts appearing.
However, if you use CTRL+Enter, pop-ups appear asking questions about
saving. Very inappropriate and buggy. This behaviour appeared after the
implemented wish that CTRL+Enter be made to obey the mode of delivery
defined in the account options. In fact, I didn't wish to save the message
but send it, so I said no to both queries and the message was deleted and
*not sent*!!
In TB! *save* and *save as draft* seem pretty synonymous. If I use CTRL+S
(save), the message is saved as a draft. Again confusing.
