I usually click EditUndo right away if I make a mistake.

While this solution worked, it is a major problem with Outlook. If you have a
contact that contains many entrees and you think you are just going to
"delete" one, the whole contact is deleted without any warning or chance to
correct what you have done.

Why is it Microsoft's problem if you click the wrong button?
