Large draft message GONE

I was in the middle of generating a long "reply all" to a message and wanted to jump to a new page when it would be printed. I absent-mindedly hit Ctl-Shift-Enter and the entire window disappeared and there was nothing in Drafts! Ctl-V just restores the last thing I added to this very long reply! I had been working on this for 90 minutes, doesn't Thunderbird continually update Drafts while working on a long email?

That keystroke is the send later command. So the message will be queued in the outbox folder awaiting sending, you will be prompted to send the message every time you shut Thunderbird down.

You could edit the pending mail using the edit as new command (Ctrl+E) and delete it from the outbox, but you can't undo a send.
