Another mysterious message in (Storage folders) Drafts folder

Aaarghh, it's happened again.
Sequence:
This morning I looked at an answer to a post in one of the alt.binaries
groups I subscribe to.
The post was not written by me nor did I answer that particular one.
I closed it.
Did some other work on the computer which required a re-start.
On opening the newsgroups, I noticed a (1) next to the Drafts folder, under
Storage folders.
The message is the same one I read and then closed.
Date 29th, time 01:20 (when I was asleep).
Weird or what.

I am beginning to believe in the supernatural :-)

Did you close down Windows Live Mail before restarting your computer?

Yes, I always close all programs before restarting :-)

Good. I wasn't sure from your earlier description.
Windows Live Mail tends to generate mysterious 'Recovered' folders
under Storage folders, one cause of which is improper shutdown.
