Prevent data loss when deleting unused Mail accounts
Am I missing something here? Isn't this common sense? If am deleting a POP account, shouldn't I expect that any mail left in it would be deleted?
Prevent data loss when deleting unused Mail accounts
I used to use Netscape and Mozilla for mail on my Windows system. When I changed my ISP while using that, my old mail remained. I lost all my old e-mails when I changed ISPs and deleted the old one from accounts.
Prevent data loss when deleting unused Mail accounts
Am I missing something here? Isn't this common sense? If am deleting a POP account, shouldn't I expect that any mail left in it would be deleted? From the Macintosh Human Interface Guidelines: The key is to create a balance between providing users with the capabilities they need to get their work done and preventing them from destroying data. For situations in which a user may destroy data accidentally, you can help the user by providing warnings, usually in the form of an alert box, to notify users of a potentially undesirable situation and still allow them to proceed, if they confirm that this is what they want. This approach "protects" users but allows them to remain in control. http://developer.apple.com/documentation/mac/HIGuidelines/HIGuidelines-22.html |
