Benny.
Problem solved after I deleted permanently the msg. in SOURCES - DELETED 
MSG option.
I have updated the accounts mailbox in SOURCES to display the correct 
type.

After I deleted the msg. from the SORCES 'deleted' it disappeared from 
the main drafts mailbox.
Curious that in the SOURCES no DRAFT was showing, just in the general 
Draft mailbox.

Hope this helps others.
I understand, and please correct me if I am wrong Benny:  you should go 
to SOURCES and update the 'Mailbox Type' option in the menu to correct 
the problem. Also verify that the 'deleted' mailbox (in SOURCES ), has 
also been emptied.

Thank you.
Z.
