Each message has an X-box in the upper-right corner to delete that one message thread, in addition to the X-box in the upper-ight corner of the entire Messages box. And every now and then I click the X on the message I just read when I meant to click off the whole section. And then the thread is just gone. And I never even see additions to it. Even if it is a thread I started (it's now gone from my outbox too). The action is instant. No chance to change your mind. And it cannot be retrieved.
My suggestion: When you click the X in the message thread it should generate a window asking "Are you sure?" with a yes/no option. So an unintentional or inadvertent mistake is not irreversable.
IMHO, most people have no need to delete individual threads so the occasion one truly does want to delete one the extra step is no big deal. But the occasion when it's a mistake, however common or rare it may be, is so utterly final it could be an important, even upsetting, loss.
