Thunderbird 3.1.9 deletes from drafts

I am using Tbird as it came with Slackware 13.37 and everytime I send something I get a message 1 or 2 drafts deleted. Should it be doing that? If not has this been reported ? How can I find out if it was reported? I have no drafts to delete.

I think it's autosaving backups of the message while you're writing it up, then deleting them once you send it since it has no further use for them.

I have seen that as well and that sounds about right, deleting autosaved mails that you are writing, once you have sent them. However I think that sometimes there may be a delay between sending it and the message appearing.

MAKE-like build that deletes orphans?

I have a complex multi-stage (media conversion and formatting) build process that leaves orphan target files needing deleting automatically (i.e. by reference only to the build rules themselves, not any parallel config) upon each regular build. Since MAKE cannot do this, what can? Thanks. (4 Replies)
