You should be getting a warning message when you attempt to delete a
folder. You don't get that when you delete a folder.

For the second time in a few weeks, I inadvertently deleted an
entire folder in Outlook Express 6 when I intended to delete only
an offending SPAM message. I know...acted without adequate
thinking...annoyance response...what ever.

Is there any way to set a given folder such that it can not be
inadvertently deleted? I know the Inbox, Outbox, and some others
are set this way, but I can not find means for setting any of the
other folders such as to keep me from inadvertently deleting the
whole folder.
