Recently saving draft emails has become an issue. No longer functional in automatic or manual mode. See attached image for details.

Similarly, automating and rules guided saving copies of 'sent' emails have failed.

No changes have been made to these Thunderbird components.

Attempted to repair the 'drafts' folder did not help.

Any assistance welcomed.

I think the message is accurate.I say that because it happens to me sometimes. Network issues. Usually, this disappears within an hour or two. To be safe, I switch to saving in local draft folder, and the latest releases of Thunderbird create a local folder on the fly to assist in such situations. My assessment is that this is not a Thunderbird issue, but just as the message indicates. :)
