You're right, I did. Didn't OE ask you every time you deleted a message? I
seem to recall it doing that, so I de-selected the option to "Require
confirmation when deleting" in the prefs. Apparently in 'rage, even with
that option checked, you can still delete (send to deleted items) messages
in the Inbox. Nice.

I agree.

No, I like the "don't show me again" options.
I appreciate having a second chance if I make a stupid mistake. When an
action is destructive, I don't like dialogs (generally), but I do like
either a folder of deleted items, or the option to Undo. In this case, I
had neither.

Did that, thanks for the tip (see above).
(Funny that I don't get a "don't remind me" option on deleting anymore...)
