Well, not that I like to copy anything from Microsoft, but the new
"Windows Live" email system puts a little arrow next to the Trash

associated folder after giving you a prompt to confirm delete. I
suppose the same could be applied to an Inbox folder as well.
Anyways, just thought I would throw that out there.Kevin L.
An arrow icon that deletes everything in a mailbox...does that sound
dangerous to anyone else but me? If such a thing were added to
Roundcube - and I question the need to make it an actual single-click
function in the interface - please don't make it an arrow icon.
Shouldn't it be something that appropriately symbolizes "you are
about to trash a whole mailbox"? I know you said there is a confirm
dialogue, but really, should there be a single icon in the interface
with such destructive potential? Sounds utterly nuts to me.
Is there the possibility of adding contextual menu functions to
Roundcube (i.e. right-click or control-click dropping down a menu of
lesser-used functions)? That's where such things are located in the
Apple Mail and Thunderbird, and I think that works pretty well to
keep them safely out of the way.
