If a user doesn't have a Drafts folder set up already, and uses "Save
Draft" while in  message composition, the Drafts folder DOES get created
automatically, but from a UI perspective, the only thing that happens is
that the message composition menu closes.  Eventually, when the sidebar
refreshes itself, the drafts folder will appear, and if the main screen is
refreshed, or another option is clicked, there's a message at the top
stating that the message has been saved into the drafts folder.  However,
until that point, there's no indication that the message has actually been
saved.  From a UI perspective, that's not great, and our support folks are
getting a few calls about this.

To reproduce:
1) Log in with a new user who doesn't have a "drafts" folder already
2) "New Message"
3) "Save Draft"
(at this point, the window closes)
4) Click on Inbox, "The folder "drafts" was successfully created." is
displayed
5) Reload sidebar manually (or wait for it to refresh ordinarily), then
the drafts folder appears

Expected behavior:
Some sort of notification should be given immediately once "Save Drafts"
has been hit, and the folder view should be refreshed if the folder needed
to be created.
