Please allow for "Fixed" locations for delete and other buttons

[jrconlin]

When going through my email, I often encounter individual messages and message threads. These two different message types have different button bars displayed. I often review my mail in a session, and it would be very useful if I could keep my mouse in the same location to quickly delete either.

As it is, I may be deleting a large number of single emails, but then accidentally archive a mail thread I did not intend because the button shifted.

It is very annoying that the button layout at the top of the message changes between messages. This is causing me to occasionally click the wrong button when processing a lot of email. Please fix the layout so all buttons are present at all times and just gray out those that do not apply, do not remove them. That way the Delete button will be in exactly the same location for every message and eliminate the potential to click the wrong button.
