Thanks for reporting back to the list.

As soon as I did the quit, Solr got a delete request for the Drafts message.  I did another test -- shift-delete a message, see that Solr did not see the delete request.  And then after I waited a while, I quit Thunderbird again.  Instantly got a delete request in Solr's log.
