Hi Darel,
Returning to this question:

No, it should not. There are seven possible usage patterns (in the
discussion below "$(Path)" stands for the value of Path variable from
~/.mh_profile):
1. send
(no arguments). In this case the behavior is:
1.a) If Draft-Folder is set: open that folder and use its "cur" message
as a draft; ask the user if it's ok.
1.b) If Draft-Folder is not set: use $(Path)/draft ad a draft;
ask the user if it's ok.
2. send -draft
Use $(Path)/draft without prompting.
3. send FILE
Use $(Path)/MSG as a draft, without prompting.
4. send -draftmessage FILE
Same as (3).
5. send -draftfolder DIR
Use the "cur" message from folder DIR as a draft.
6. send -draftfolder DIR MSG
Use MSG from folder DIR.
7. send -draftfolder DIR -draftmessage MSG
Same as (6).
As you see, Draft-Folder is used only in scenario (1).
Regards,
Sergey
