[MlMt] Draft messages are not editable

[Henry Seiden]

Hi Dave,

Here’re a couple of clues for you:
1. I use the Three Panes View. That setting behaves differently than the 
Threaded Arcs layout in regard to handling draft messages the way you 
use it.
2. In my settings above in my normal view, if I look at the All Drafts 
folder, pick any existing message (there are several there) long time 
created or brand new and double click it, it opens as a message for 
editing.
3. In your preferred Layout (view selection), Threaded Arcs, the same 
process above behaves differently. Old messages do NOT open when double 
clicked. Here’s what works in this view:
	* Select it (single click).
	* Open a Draft message using the Menu>Message>Edit as New Message. 
Actually this works in ANY View I’ve tried.
4. I leave it to others to reason this out since I don’t use this view 
and prefer the Three Panes for my needs, hence never ran into it.

Respectfully,

Henry Seiden
