    I have accidentally deleted at least 5 draft emails from my draft folder while I was trying to edit them over the last few months. Maybe there is a problem with my keyboard, but when I'm in a draft email and use the delete key to remove some text, sometimes it just deletes the whole email from my draft folder. And, I guess because it's a draft, it doesn't go to the trash folder, it's just GONE. I've lost easily 6+ HOURS of work because of one keystroke doing something it's not supposed to do. I don't know if I'm an isolated case, but is it possible to make it slightly harder to delete a draft? An "Are You Sure?" pop-up box? Just making the deleted draft go into the trash folder for a week instead of evaporating instantly would be a huge improvement (pretty sure MS Outlook does this).

    Thank you,
    Frustrated User
