I noticed that when I am writing a news message, close Opera before
finishing it, restart and then send it, a copy of the messsage is left in
Drafts even after the message was successfully posted.

IMHO the confusion in the operation of draft needs to be addressed. In
spite of attempts at explanation by Rijk and others, it seems to be
unpredictable, and is not addressed in either help, tutorial, or forums. I
think that the functions of emergency saving of work in progress and
intentional saving of work in progress need to be separated, the latter
operating like a file with a "save" function that preserves the last
version saved. The open (compose)version should be the only one that is
ever sent, and should then appear in the "sent" view. "Draft" should then
be empty, unless what is in it can be identified like a file, which is
especially important when several messages show in "draft."
