This is a google apps account.

I do indeed have a "Drafts" folder in the list in my Gmail account, however the filter displayed for it is "in:draft" so I'm pretty sure this check needs to include "draft" as well as "Drafts", if it's even needed at all.

In any case, I can't use gmvault due to this.
