One day I was writing one big email and unfortunetely when I was almost ready 
with it, the power went down and I haven't seen my unsent message anymore 
since that time!!! WHY? I think ThunderBird must have some "automatic save" 
feature! Maybe in the config there could be some property to set periodic time 
for saving drafts! 

I know this is not bug, it's ONLY enhancement, but it's about DATA LOST, so 
i'm marking this as MAJOR (if I can use priority i would mark it as 
enhancement with P1).

Thank you for this product!

Reproducible: Always

I'll be looking at this - but this is surely a dup?
