My mail accounts are IMAP. I received an error sending a message that
said, "There was an error copying the message to the Sent folder.
Retry?" with "Cancel" and "OK" buttons.
- Which "Sent" folder? I have three. (2 IMAP, 1 local)
- What was the error? There is no way I can attempt to fix the problem
when I don't know what it is.
- The buttons are not clear. "Cancel" what? The entire message, or
just the copy in Sent? "OK"? No, it's definitely _not_ okay! This
button should be "Retry". I realize that this is probably a stock
dialog and that it's easier to use a "cancel/ok" dialog than to write
a custom one... But "easy to write" is not the goal of a good user
interface.
- As a minor point, I find having "Cancel" on the left indicate that
that would be the normally desired course of action, something
usually associated with "OK".
When I clicked "OK", another "Sending Message" dialog appeared, which
after a while gave a status of "copy failed". However, the progress bar
kept on moving like it was doing something. It actually took me a while
to realize that the status had changed because the movement of the bar
screams "still working" even though the small print says "failed".

It seems that anything people have learned prior to puberty takes
on the
status of an immutable truth (this is something well understood by
parents,
governments, and religions). Rational explanations of why some previous
belief might be incompatible with the behavior of nature, and a careful
explanation of the actual behavior of nature are of little avail.
