I'm using Thunderbird Supernova, Can anybody tell me why I have (a DRAFT and DRAFTS) folders? When I save my emails for later they are saved in the DRAFTS folder, the DRAFT folder appears not to be used. I have tried to delete it but guess it must be some sort of system folder. Any help please. Thanks

It is probable that your email provider has established DRAFTS for the account, whereas Thunderbird creates a DRAFT folder. You might also see if you are subscribed to both, as that might cause DRAFT to not be deleted.

You're welcome. I also have such a setup in my own personal email, so your problem was familiar to me.
