too many drafts saved in Mail

Hi ajcphoto,

Thank you for posting to Apple Support Communities.

Let's check some settings on the Mail app on your Mac. Open All Drafts on the left side. Do you see any of the drafts there? Also check the Trash and Archive to make sure they aren't listed in there as well. That can cause them to appear when searching for a specific email.

Let us know what happens after those steps.

Cheers.

Thank you for getting back to us, ajcphoto. You should be able to just right click on the folder, then select "Erase Deleted Items" to have them permanently deleted. To change the settings gs for when the archived messages delete, you can go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select the specific account > Mailbox Behaviors.

Have a great day!

ajcphoto,

This is correct. If you make various edits on an email, there are more copies of it than if you created an email in a few minutes and sent it off.

If you have other concerns, please let us know.

Thanks.

Sure thing, ajcphoto! We're always happy to help.

Have a great day!
