I don't know what it was, or why it happened, but it's fixed.

I deleted the Drafts folder, shut down OE, rebooted it, and it created a
new
drafts folder and drafts.dbx...

Then OE was NOT closed the other times you deleted DRAFTS.DBX.

If you could literally delete the Drafts folder, either it wasn't the
default Drafts folder or your identity's damaged.
