Drafts multiply during editing

[gtandersen]

Describe the bug In some (large?) accounts, drafts that are being edited multiply during editing, resulting in 2-4 versions of the same draft in various states of completion.

The issue could be connected with drafts being open in Runbox 6, which also auto-saves drafts frequently.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to https://runbox.com/app
2. Click to Compose (or reply/forward)
3. Start entering details
4. Observe that the several versions of the same draft appear

Expected behavior Only one version of the same draft should be created.

Perhaps there are ways to simplify Drafts functionality further so that only the draft you have open is saved/refreshed?

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS
• Browser: Firefox

Same behaviour with latest Firefox on Win10.

I've attempted to reproduce this bug in multiple ways on both Firefox and Chrome on Win10 along with IMAP via Thunderbird, and am failing to. Tried a variety of scenarios such as creating a fresh mail, replying to other mails and the like, having it open in both chrome and firefox at once, having the email client also open, typing in one browser then refreshing on the other, and all sorts. Therefore so far, I think more information is needed on reproducing the bug as currently, am struggling.

Not seen this issue recently either.

Just got it today again. Is it possible that the issue would be linked with a loss of network connection? (on a train, lost wifi, ...)
