I keep finding past emails in Drafts, I never use drafts, now I found loads of emails I thought I'd lost in drafts, I didn't put them there, I need all my emails to stay where I left the forever or until I delete or move them. also, can you define what is meant by "LOCAL FOLDERS" Thanks for any help

Auto save places a copy of any email you edit in the drafts folder every 5 minutes while you edit it. OF late there have been a couple of bug with have resulted in that auto saves not being deleted when the mail is sent. Other than that there is no way mail can get into the drafts folder unless you put it there.
