Thunderbird does not ask for confirmation before moving to Archive, Deleted, Junk
Hello
I want to be notified with a confirmation box before any email is removed/deleted from the inbox.
How can I do that?
Sometimes, my keyboard stucks and I see my emails disappearing from my inbox one by one, probably deleted.
Thanks

There are a few warning settings regarding delete.
- 'AppMenu' > 'Options' > 'Options' > 'Advanced' > 'General' tab
- click on 'Config Editor' button
Warning for delete:
- In search type: mail.warn
- Line: mail.warn_on_delete_from_trash
- Double click on that line to toggle the Value from false to true (or right click on line and select 'Toggle')
if you use shift Delete and need warning:
- Repeat above process on this line: mail.warn_on_shift_delete
- Toggle value to True
Warning when emptying trash:
- In search type: empty
- Line: mailnews.emptyTrash.dontAskAgain
- toggle value from true to false
Warning when emptying Junk:
- In search type: empty
- Line: mailnews.emptyJunk.dontAskAgain
- toggle value from true to false
Warning on moving folders to trash:
- In search type: Trash
- Line : mailnews.confirm.moveFoldersToTrash
- Toggle value to True
re :Sometimes, my keyboard stucks
I advise you clean the keyboard. There maybe dirt under the keys.
