[MlMt] Composed messages saved to a Drafts mailbox in MM v. 6238 and higher not visible on any other devices

[ARC MM]

Benny,

Could it be an idea to store these unfinished encrypted emails in a 
subfolder of the drafts “Drafts-encryted”? Or in an “Other 
Drafts” folder.

At least that would “remind” the user that there is more to that 
mail than a draft

Just my 5 cts
