Move the Mail.app Send button out of harm's way

This is a pretty simple hint, but I got bit by it a couple of times before I realized it could be fixed...

Ever notice how near the little red Close bubble is right next to the Send button in the Mail.app message composition window? Ever written something you absolutely regretted writing, and decided to flush it by closing the window ... and hit the Send button instead, because it's so close?

If this hasn't happened to you yet, it will; trust me. But there's a very simple solution: go to View -> Customize Toolbar and drag two or three Spaces to the left of the Close button. This will give you a nice margin of error between these two very, very different buttons.

Do it now. You don't want what just happened to me to happen to you.
