I'm not sure when this started but I find to be annoying.

When I receive a message, it is being marked as draft.

Please note; my email is based on Google - @gmail.com

Version 128.3.3esr (64-bit)

Running on Win 10 pro

If I log into Gmail no msg in inbox is marked as draft

How can I stop this annoyance?

Thanks,

Mike A.

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

sfhowes,

I wound up taking a different path to solve this. 1) I did a complete back up of the messages in the inbox by copying them to another drive. 2) 'rolled back' the entire drive to an older version [about 3 weeks] (I use clonezilla for system back up). 3) Began to methodically selecting and copying select messages to the inbox using exportimport toolsNG.

So far I have not experienced the "draft" problem anymore.

Not to be critical, I don't see how your suggested extension could help.

It looks like your Inbox is acting like a Drafts folder. See if you can fix it with FolderFlags:

sfhowes,

I tried your suggestion and received a msg that folderflags extension IS NOT compatible with my version of TB - 128.3.3esr (64-bit).

My other TB extensions are compactheaders and importexporttools NG

For TB 128, install FolderFlags 1.7.0:
