Mail Suggestion - Change 'Archive'

(Blog post--see the most recent comments.)

I've noticed that the 'Archive' feature does not actually archive your mail--instead, it deletes it. Archiving is when you save something in a place for future reference or records.

If someone wants to clear out their inbox but still keep some conversations, they may use the archive feature, thinking that the coversation(s) marked will perhaps be emailed to them in HTML format or something along those lines. But right now the archive feature /deletes/ instead of /archives/ and those important conversations are lost. :I

My suggestion is to either actually implement a proper archive feature and add a delete feature, or just rename 'Archive' to 'Delete'.
In addition, I'd also like a confirmation message after (and maybe even before) deleting, like a simple "Your conversation(s) have been deleted." and "Are you sure you want to delete this conversation(s)?"

It'd be great if this was implemented to prevent confusion. c:

Support or no? I'd appreciate it if you all did the poll as well as it helps to get a quick overview of what people think. Feel free to post any additional comments you have--either to approve, disprove, or discuss. 😸

I certainly agree. I've never noticed this until now that you've said something, this really is helpful. 😊

@karamel

This is very much needed, especially with the simple reason of being correct and using the right word with the accurate definition behind it's purpose 😋
