Unable to unselect "save draft" on mail box after updating mavericks

Same problem here, after removing the tick in the box " save draft on server", and saving this setting, it still keeps the tick in the box when I go back to check the setting's adjustment.

Same annoying problem here.

Thanks Apajos, that worked.

The quote from the link is:

This fixed it for me, at least for the time being:

1) Quit Mail.app.

2) Log into Gmail in your favorite web browser.

3) Click on the gear menu and select "Settings".

4) Click on the "Labels" tab.

5) Under "System Labels", next to "Drafts", click on "show if unread" and uncheck the "Show in IMAP' box.

Now disable "Store draft messages on the server":

6) Launch Mail.app.

7) Select Mail > Preferences...

8) Click on the "Accounts" button in the toolbar.

9) Click once on the account name and then click the "Mailbox Behaviors" tab.

10) Uncheck the "Store draft messages on the server" box.

11) Close the window and opt to save your changes when prompted.

Hi,

Same problem here, but with my Orange account instead of Gmail.

My email account is IMAP as well, but when I unselect "save draft", and save the preferences, this has no effect.

And every time I reopen mail.app the "save draft" option is always selected...

I didn't find any options I could change on the orange website...

I have no solution...

If anyone has an idea, let me know, many thanks

Hi Bakamero,

Hi yvesleon,

Thanks, but as I told, my email account provider is not Gmail, but "Orange" which is rather popular in France...

Anyway, I tried something else : I deleted my account in mail.app, and I recreated it.

It works as long as I don't close the mail.app.

Because when I close the app and reopen it, the "Store draft messages on the server" box is checked again...

It is making me mad...

If you have any other idea, thank you very much

bye

Check the settings of Orange to see if there is something that resembles the setting in Gmail, or post screenshots so that other people can look at this.

You can also post it as a new discussion on the dorum, and then mention Orange in the subject to draw the attention of people who use that provider.

Thanks for the advice yvesleon!

At the moment, it seems to work, I will wait a few days to check if it's ok before creating a new discussion.

Well, it didn't work...

So I followed your advice yvesleon.
