I've got some messages in my Drafts folder that were send to me. The
Subject field is not very descriptive so once I get a lot of them
there it'll be difficult to find whatever I'll be searching for. For
that reason I'd like to modify the subject of those messages so I can
easily recognise what is what. Can this be done at all? When I right-
click on a message I can't see any option for renaming. Any ideas?

Double click the message to open it in its own window and then modify the
subject.

Thanks for the reply but have you actually tested it?
If it was my message then probably I could do what
you suggest but as I mentioned these are messages
that were sent to me not my messages that I saved
to Drafts.

Yes, I have and even though you have changed some of the information of your
original request, the solution is still valid. Otherwise, post the exact
steps to reproduce this behavior.

I didn't know that. You simply open the mail, click on the subject line and
start editing.

Now I can confirm that it really works. The subject is on the same
blue background like the email address of the sender so I thought you
can't edit it but once I tried it turns up I can.
Thanks guys.
