Thanks for pointing that out. But I still vote for a Cancel button, or the
ability to just close the window without creating an event, if there is no
data entered.
Note that Entourage is not consistent about this matter. If I open a new
outgoing email message window, I can start typing an address, change my
mind, erase the address, and close the window without creating a draft
message. If I leave message text in the window and hit the close box before
sending, a dialog appears asking me if I want to save. I can choose "Don't
Save" if I desire. This is the way it should be throughout Entourage, and
it is a behavior familiar to Mac users.
I usually run Entourage with toolbars suppressed ("View > Toolbars"
unchecked). Apparently this option was added as an afterthought, or not
properly tested. Various UI elements that should always be available (like
that cancel button disguised as a trashcan) are hidden if Toolbars are not
enabled. There are also various windows that do not draw correctly, with
buttons missing, when Toolbars are disabled (something I reported several
updates ago).
