Just realized that the extra copies of the drafts do not get automatically deleted, they popular the drafts folder and I have to delete them by hand. My guess is the culprit is in here somewhere: (setq gnus-home-directory "~/gnus/" gnus-directory "~/gnus/News/" message-directory "~/gnus/Mail/" nnmail-message-id-cache-file "~/gnus/.nnmail-cache" message-auto-save-directory "~/gnus/Mail/drafts" gnus-cache-directory "~/gnus/News/cache") Note that the "message-auto-save-directory" is *not* where messages get autosaved, they go into the ~/gnus/News/drafts/drafts directory, same with the deliberately saved messages.
