That's what it sounds like. The Draft flag is an IMAP flag. IMP will only 
resume drafts for which the Draft flag is set. It sounds like pine simply 
uses the drafts subdirectory and ignores the Draft flag. That's why pine 
can resume IMP drafts and why IMP can resume drafts after you've manually 
set the Draft flag.

>From an IMAP standpoint, IMP is right and pine is wrong. Maybe look and see 
if there's some way to get pine to set the draft flag. Or to get your IMAP 
server to set the flag for all messages in a "drafts" subdirectory or 
something.

NOTE: [tab] means press the tab key (don't literally type [tab])
