This happened to me quite regularly for several months a few years ago (not
on the Draft group in my case but on one or another of my inboxes). I did
locate the problem (I found a file in the data folder that had become
corrupted each time) and find a way to fix it ... or rather a couple of
ways: there was one way that usually fixed it, but if that didn't work there
was another one that did.

Aaaargh. The medication I've been on since becoming disabled really messes
with my memory, and I can't quite remember the details. Both methods were
doing somethhing to a file in the data folder ... one was deleting a
particular file to do with the first named group (draft in your case), the
other was replacing a file with a previous version from the file properties
window. The group file? The index file?

Sorry, just can't quite remember. But I'm really writing just to say don't
panic, it CAN be fixed, even if I can't quite remember how. So don't do
anything drastic before someone comes along with the correct fix.

Regards,

David
