Hi!! I have found a UI bug in Gmail. If you take a look at your gmail inbox, note the placement of the “Delete” button. Its the 3rd button.
Now, take a look at the “Delete” button at the Spam tab. Its the 1st button. Lots of times, I have clicked on “Not Spam” button and (doh!!) went on a hunting spree at inbox to perform the S&D operation 
S&D = Search and Destroy heheh!…
It would be better if the “Delete Forever” button is placed after the “Not Spam” button.

actaully when they first launched for a couple of months, gmail dint even have a delete button ! just to emphaise the fact that you never have to delete mail with the ultra big mail size .
so much so that firefox users made extensions and greasemonkey scripts just to do the job.
so give them some time. if they were late in intro’ing a delete button ,theyre probably take some more time to place it right ! 8 )
Keep Clicking,

Well, Google idea is to make you archive and not delete mails. So, if you watch closely, Archive and Delete All appears at same location. So, archive your mails and delete your spam. This might be the idea of google

@sagaro:
will surely make it
Yes da
@ramesh:
May be.. but the button placement is a hindrance da. Clicking on “Not Spam” is even more dangerous

@ramesh, bosky:
A keyboard shortcut for deleting selected mails should solve the problem.

@Ramesh,
Yes. When you ‘empty trash’, you get a message “Who needs to empty trash when you have more than 2000 MB of storage’.!
