How can one *accidentally* hit that button?

After browser unfreezes, BOOM, messages are gone. I suggest to remove this function from INBOX folder at all, or make confirmation window similar to those, when you perform empty/delete actions on folders.

Mon, 05 Feb 2007 05:40:36 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/4812#t29173 I still think current implementation is not safe enough. Just couple of hours ago, I had another call from the client which deleted all his emails by accident in the Inbox. This is 5th such call this year and ~20th or so since this feature was implemented. When searching for this ticket I have found that my clients are not the only one with this problem. See ticket 7437 for example. I have found that users very often confuse Clear Folder icon with Empty Trash icon. They are very similar. Also the confirmation screen is not very "scary" to rise user attention. In my opinion I think that Clear Folder icon is too dangerous for Inbox at all. But if it cannot be removed at least two points above need to be addressed. Maybe confirmation screen could require user input? Something like writing "I AGREE".

Correction "Clear Folder action is too dangerous to be a simple icon even with confirmation. At least all other email clients I know have this feature hidden somewhere in the menu."
