My email provider currently has an invalid SMTP certificate, so I can't send or receive any messages. Annoyingly, it also seems to prevent me saving the message I just wrote into the Drafts folder. Why?

"Your draft message was not copied to your drafts folder (Drafts) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the draft locally to Local Folders/Drafts-sundry@dtu.net.nz."

This isn't a certificate error. Why do you think your email provider has an invalid certificate?

As a workaround you can select the Drafts folder underneath the Local Folders account as Drafts folder for your IMAP account. Check your Account Settings - Copies & Folders.
