How do I make Thunderbird delete message drafts from my Draft folder once the message is sent? Since the last TB upgrade (I think) draft messages keep piling up, even many versions of the same draft and none get purged once the message is finally sent. Thanks for helping!

I see a few other users have this problem too, as far back as 2015 - 2016. However, not many users have reported this issue and so far I have not received an answer (3 months). How can this problem be approached and fixed – does someone in the Thunderbird team have insight on the issue? There is obviously a mechanism that deletes drafts from the draft folder once messages are sent, but why does this mechanism sometimes not work, and how can it be made to work again?
