Dear Thunderbird team,

yesterday I had a somewhat scary moment: I issued the "Archive" command by pressing "A" to archive all my mails from the Inbox, which took about 1-2 minutes. So far, so good. During this process, I changed the sound volume of my Mac using the keyboard buttons, which are right above the Backspace key. So I wasn't precise enough and hit the Backspace key while Thunderbird was archiving. That was a bad idea, because Thunderbird then started to delete all selected messages at the same time as it was archiving them! I was able to recover some e-mail from the Trash afterwards.

So I'd suggest that Thunderbird only allow one command to be executed at a time, lest they interfere with each other. Otherwise, I love Thunderbird.

Thanks for looking into this, regards,

Arthur

Actually, I believe it had stopped archiving, and had already selected the messages, and then followed the new instruction of deleting.

Thanks, but in fact, the status bar at the bottom alternated between archiving and moving to the Trash every half second. So the two operations must have been executed simultaneously. I was able to move the messages from the Trash to the Archive later on, so I believe nothing was lost (except that I got a lot of duplicates in the Archive for some reason). Also in the Trash, I had about 1,300 new empty messages with a date of Jan 1, 1970. These were probably archived before the deletion operation could move them to the Trash.
