User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8
Build Identifier: latest

Every message I receive using TB3 says "This is a draft message" This appears right under the header and an Edit button shows right beside the message.

It seems to have been triggered by setting drafts to be saved in my InBox. That is what I want. But it should not mark *incoming* messages as "drafts."

The problem is discussed here:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set drafts to be stored in the InBox
2. Receive e-mail


Expected Results:  
See details

Unsent mail message should be marked as a draft. Received mail should not be marked as a draft.

If I have to choose between storing drafts in the InBox or not seeing the "draft" marking at all I would choose to save the drafts in the InBox and do without the "draft" flag.

See the discussion for some good comments on this one.
confirming as a v3 regression based on multiple reports in http://gsfn.us/t/przh where bienvenu states this may be a header pane regression.
I haven't tested this myself.
