Edit as new not working with draft messages?

Occasionally I want to send two similar messages at the same time. I write one message and save it as a draft - usually at this stage without any addresses specified.

I visit the Drafts folder and use Edit as New to open the draft message as what I expect to be a new message, and then make the changes necessary (including a modified subject) to create the second similar message. I then save the second message as a draft.

When I return to the Drafts folder, the second message has overwritten the first. Edit as New does not appear to work correctly in the Drafts folder ......

I can create two similar drafts by starting a completely new message (with Write), and then manually copying the subject & contents of the original draft. However this is a cumbersome process .....

Please can Mozilla be modified so that Edit as New allows multiple draft messages to be created correctly?

I can appreciate the confusion. Edit as a new message means to open the draft in a new message pane to edit it as you have discovered. Editing a draft does not mean creating a new message.

It would be a neat idea to be able to choose to either Edit original Draft or Edit as a new message to mean create and saves as new different draft.

The workaround was to SAve the second 'draft' as a template. Double click to open the template in a new Write message.

I have located a bug report on this created a while ago. Add your vote and voice stating OS version of TB etc. I have just added my vote.

Thanks for your feedback. I've looked at the bug report you identified and added my vote to the system.

I have previously tried using Templates for this issue. However, my messages are usually sent to a mailing list. I have found in the past that the mailing list is expanded when the message is sent, and my templates contained the expanded list (which meant that any addresses subsequently added to the mailing list were ignored).

I don't think I've actually tried creating the template without any addresses, even though this is how I currently work with my drafts. I'll do some more experimenting - it might provide a neat solution to several related problems.

Thanks again for your help.
