In mail/messaging (accessed in user interface within city), I would like to see the format changed just a bit. The problem is that the X (exit) sits so close to the trashcan (delete). Several times I nearly deleted a thread on accident.
Since most people are so accustomed to the X being on the right, I doubt moving that to the other side is welcome. I'm hoping for a bit of space (doesn't need a lot, just more) between the X and trashcan button.
Alternatively, move the exit button to the bottom right. Because its not upper right as is commonly recognized, it would make more sense to say CLOSE instead of X.
This would still have the same problem as above, risking deleting the last visible thread if too near to trashcan.
I think the trashcan makes sense where it is, so its just a redesign of the window to put a bit of buffer there. I realize vertical space is limited but I'm confident this could be fixed, even if it is sacrificing one thread from being visible on the list to avoid changing the size dimensions of the window (the height of one row reallocated in the design as buffer between X and trashcan).
