Sent Emails Remain in Drafts Folder

more options

For the past several weeks I've been finding emails in my Drafts folder that have already been sent. This is happening multiple times a day, and each time I need to go and confirm the email has been sent before I deleted from Drafts.

Is it just me? Or is this a blog in a recent update to Thunderbird? And if it's just me, is there a setting that controls this that might be the root of my issues?

Thanks! Bill
