Drafts folder has a duplicate displayed as ".Drafts". Configuration is 'None' for receiving part and 'Sendmail' for sending

Thanks for a bug report. The image is already gone, but that doesn't matter much, because I know what you mean. The "doubled" draft is that one "Draft" folder has the special icon, but there is also a regular folder ".Draft", with a leading dot. I noticed it too, it's there only for fresh accounts, with no previous configuration.

I would expect it being fixed within bug #732145, but it isn't.

So it was the folder structure migration, which caused this. The Drafts folder is the first for which evolution asks, thus it is created, also on disk, but only after it is created the disk folder hierarchy is migrated (to escape dots in folder names, thus the dots can be used in UI folder names too), which also renamed just created Drafts folders.
