"When replying to a message, the message is marked as having been replied to when saved as a draft (i.e., before the reply is sent).

To reproduce:
1) select any message in inbox that is not already marked as having been replied to
2) click reply
3) save reply as draft

The received message will have been marked as replied to even though it hasn't been. This seems like a low priority, but I can't think of any interpretation of this other than as a bug."
Comment 1 Jeffrey Stedfast 2007-10-17 16:22:46 UTC 
actually it was designed this way because otherwise it becomes too hard to track what draft is a reply to what message in what folder as it can move, the uid can be reassigned, etc.

Closing as NOTABUG based on Jeff's comment.
