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 and Junk folders - if you click that arrow, it will empty the 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.

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.
