I'm sure it would be far less annoying than clicking the back
arrow and losing the message though!Maybe we save it automatically as a draft and have a notice appear
in the info panel telling the user that; we can avoid the popup
completely while still saving the message.Changing places for icons, and modifying send icon to something
more "send" looking, connected with a message like Craig proposed,
would be a good start. Another good thing could be placing a button
for saving composed message as draft.What do you think Thomas ?

My fault ... rest of the thread will be continued in correct place :)

Yes, that's going into the right direction. Unfortunately we don't have the "Safe as draft" function ready but an alert if the message should be discarded would do it in the mean time. The current sending icon was taken from the Mozilla Thunderbird theme but I'll look for a better one. I'm not sure if it looks good then the back-button is not at the left end of the toolbar...

You are right, if the buttons will remain in line, the back-button should stay on its place. But the change of send icon and an alert while trying to discard message, should fix those problems.
