I suggested it because, in my Windows days, I enjoyed exactly that feature in The Bat, a very powerful email client. The function was called Parking. If a message was parked, it could not be deleted. It was a simple toggle, just as I described. I really miss that feature, but I guess if you've never used it, you probably can't appreciate its utility. [smile]On Tue, 2003-01-07 at 08:34, Lane P.

I don't think I have ever seen any app where a "Move to Trash" operation on an object gets silently ignored in virtue of a flag on the object...
