The worse for you if you ever start getting spam. The 2004 version is a
superb filter better than any rules you could make up. If you don't get spam
anyway, I suppose that's not relevant to you at the moment.

Not so. they're approximately the same size (in fact "Delete" is a tiny bit
bigger when text is displayed). Depending how wide you keep the main window
and/or message windows, text is displayed or not for various buttons. If not
wide enough, it's true that the "Delete" text evaporates first - perhaps
because the Trash symbol is so well known.

It's quite easy to distinguish between the icons: one of them looks like a
gray trashcan and the other one is a lurid pink envelope, which turns green
when you're looking at junk mail. They don't look at all alike to me. I even
like the fact that they're next to each other so I can quickly eyeball them
and decide which I want this time.

Some day we'll get toolbar customization and then everyone will be happy...
