How do I make the Auto-Save generated drafts delete automatically when I send the message?

If I start an email in the morning, get up for a meeting, have lunch, go to another meeting, and come back to the email, my Drafts folder has a copy of the message for every 5 minutes I was gone. Identical copies. 30 of them. Its a waste of storage, computing power, etc. AND it clogs the new message notification with useless drafts. If I want to see the subject of any new messages that come in I have to manually purge my drafts folder every time I finish sending an email that took longer than five minutes to write.

Three changes: -Auto-Save now only creates a new draft if the content changes during the specified interval. -A checkbox is added to Options|Composition|General that causes any drafts of a message to be deleted when the message is sent. -New Message notification can be linked to a specific mailbox. I don't want to be notified when I get junk mail. That is why its being filtered into junk. Because it is junk.

As I understand this issue it applies specifically to gmail imap accounts. Is that your case?

Not entirely. IMAP yes, gMail no.

I could set up Thunderbird to check my gMail but I'm using it as a client for godaddy at work.

I did read something in bugzilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ on the subject, but i just don't have time to search it out again.

You could try changing the folder used to save drafts. Tools menu (Alt+T) > account settings > copies and folders to a local folders drafts folder. That would mean your drafts would not follow you device to device, but the multiples would stop.
