I tried to make two copies of one draft. I sent one.  The other disappeared, and my Drafts folder still shows that there is one draft in it.  There are none

I had the same problem on my MAC. "My draft folder shows 1 but once opened there was no file. I just right clicked on "mark folder as read" and it removed it.

I right-clicked on the Drafts folder and clicked on Compact.  The file came back, but now Drafts displays that there is nothing there.  I tried to edit the file, and then saved it.  Now everything is fine :)

WMF here on

I think it is only a index issue: rebuilding index (or compact folder) the "ghost" message return.

for comment #4 I suppose can close this bug as WFM (or Invalid?).
