Description Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-01-04 19:41:16 UTC 
Folder / Mark Messages as Read is a potentially harmful action. This action if used by accident can lose a *lot* of information.

Folder / Mark Messages as Read needs a confirmation dialog.
Comment 1 Kjetil Torgrim Homme 2006-01-04 19:43:59 UTC 
particularily since this is the position of the old Mark Selected Messages As Read, this is easily chosen by accident.  the name of the function should make clear it affects all messages, i.e. it should say "Mark All Messages as Read".
