Don't know about this, but a similar frustration point is that, when any 
email message is selected in SM Mail, if you press "DEL", even by 
accident, that message is immediately considered 'deleted' -- and to get 
it back, I close SM, open the corresponding mail folder in a text 
processor (like Notebook), find the 'deleted' message, change its 
"X-Mozilla-Status & Status2" back, delete the folder's MSF file, reopen 
SM, and let it rebuild the MSF file; a "Confirm Delete?" or "Undo" 
option (like the "Undo Move Message" existing one) would avoid that, but 
it seems there is no way to do that.
