No, I don't think it is a bug in Squirrelmail. I think Gnus has
communicated to the Imap server that there is a mail folder called
Inbox.Drafts, without actually creating it. This could be related to the gnus
does not create Gcc folder I reported prior to this, and which you fixed
(thanks!). And somehow, the Imap server (cyrus, in my case) stumbles
over this ghost Draft folder. Which shows up in Squirrelmail.
Squirrelmail, by the way, is a GPL'ed webmail application in php.
