Description
- Compose a new message
- Notice you are not on the right account
- Use the account switcher
- Send the email
Actual behavior
The last draft state of the message will stay in the "Drafts" folder of the first account.
Expected behavior
When you switch the account, the draft is moved from the first account to the account you switched to. Thus when you send the mail, no draft version is left.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing the account-switcher flow and how drafts are saved and sent across accounts. Done means switching accounts moves the draft to the selected account and sending it leaves no draft in the original account.
