move the "All Mail" folder far away from the Trash folder
Please (For God's sake) move the "ALL MAIL" folder far away from the TRASH folder! You have it directly underneath the Trash folder and I've accidentally emptied/deleted "all mail" twice now thinking I was emptying my Trash folder. So now I all my inbox mail is permanently gone.

Same problem here, is there any way to recover them?

I agree. Relocate the "all mail" folder to the top. I too accidentally trashed all of my mail because I accidentally clicked on "all mail" instead of "trash".

Please either separate "all mail" from "trash" (far far away from each other) OR just remove "all mail". There have been times when I am very tired and my eyesite is not the best that I wanted to DELETE mail from "trash" but selected "all mail" instead. Many of us have valuable mail that we can't afford to lose!

There are two issues with the "All Mail" Button. One, it's proximity to the "Trash" button requires extra vigilance so as to not "trash" everything in my folders. Two, the "All Mail" button includes the FINAL delete button - which adds to its precarious position. If one rushes and thinks they are in the "Trash" area and hit delete forever . . . oops, no recourse to retrieve. It would seem that, regardless of its position, the "All Mail" button should not have the delete all feature . . . period.

I tried to hide it but always come back after restarting my browser, which is Dissenter

How can I delete or hide All folder?
Never seen such a folder that can contains any mail, I deleted 350 mails thinking that I was deleting just all those mails in that folder, to my surprise I delete everything! -

Dear all,
Is it possible to separate the "all mail" feature from the other features. I have lost all my emails when I thought I was just erasing the "Trash". -

Fully agree

Having the ability to Hide specific folders from All Mail would greatly help to customize and compartmentalize the workflow.
It's helpful to see all emails at a glance in All Mail, but I don't want to see some folders (e.g. spam, trash, sent, and some of my own labels)This could be done with a simple toggle in the Folders Settings.

Yes please, it's more confusing than useful (I actually don't see the use for it, my email client can already search for all mails without this folder).

It is potentially dangerous where all mail could be deleted.

Remove the 'All Mail' folder which retains unnessessary, deleted from 'Trash' and dupicate emails.

Yeah... I accidentally clicked "all mail" instead of "trash" and deleted all my mail for the past several months. At least put it somewhere further away!

Currently the All Mail button sits directly above the Trash button. Twice now I have dropped into the All Mail folder by mistake and deleted all of my email. Could the All Mail button be moved so its not so close to the Trash? Thanks and your email service is fantastic.

I am not the only one accidentally deleting all my stuff because I selected "All Mail" Just get rid of it. I cannot see how it serves any useful function.

A request to PLEASE move ALL MAIL away from below the TRASH. When going to delete my TRASH items I have on a few occasions accidentally clicked on ALL MAIL and inadvertantly deleted all my emails. :( So PLEASE move the ALL MAIL so it is not in close proximity to the TRASH. Thank you.

Because the Trash Tag was above the All Mail, I mistakenly deleted all my emails.
Please can you make Trash Tag in a more prominent colour - possibly in the Red Colour. Additionally, it would be better that both the All Mail and Trash Tags have some spacing to differentiate these tags from the rest of the tags - such as Inbox, Sent etc etc.
It would be a good idea - if you could get somoene who does not possess perfect eyesight - to give opinions on the design of the tags.
Thanks

I had a little 'accident' and removed the contents of the 'All Mail', when I meant to remove the contents of the 'Trash'. I think the 'All Mail' would be better moved to another location - perhaps above the 'Inbox'?
