I mean what other app calls it that? They all call it Mark as unread.
Defer sort of sounds like there’s something evil in your mailbox, and you going to have to face it sooner or later.
And the message is already there, so you’re not deferring it. You’re deferring dealing with it.
But okay let’s say we deal with it. Then it’s still there. Then we deal with it again and still there etc.
Okay now let’s take the concept of delete. When we delete it we delete it.
But when we defer it we don’t defer it because it is already there.
Anyway could you please help out and preserve our English language by not using terms that stretch the imagination? Thank you.
