It seems to have been missed. There is a button available directly above the message in the message preview pane, and full-window message view. Since the other buttons like "Junk" have been made available for customizing toolbars, it makes sense to also offer "Archive" for completeness. This way, we can hide the message preview pane, and still have the ability to send messages to archive. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use Thunderbird v3 b2 2. Hide the preview pane (F8) 3. Select a message, and click the "Archive" button in the upper toolbar. Wait, you can't! It's not there :) I like the archive feature. I haven't played with it much, but it will come in real handy. I can't wait for the official release version of Thunderbird v3, so I can start using this feature on my work computer.

Other ways to activate the the "Archive" function is to use Message > Archive from the menu, or to hit the 'A' keyboard shortcut (the latter pending change to a two-key shortcut per bug 476590). Thus, it is nevertheless possible to perform the archive function despite the header pane not being visible. However, there is a clear inconsistency with other functions for which buttons are provided in the header pane and where corresponding toolbar buttons exist. Thus, adding a toolbar icon at least to the "Customize" palette would be more consequently applying that scheme. Confirming for the missing toolbar button.

Here is the icon for the toolbar

No archive icon in the toolbar customization for Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.4pre) Gecko/20090914 Shredder/3.0b4pre yet, despite bug 506011 comment #7. Thus, yet needs to be done for XP at least.

hm, the css is there, so maybe some code is missing? from primaryToolbar.css in trunk: #button-archive { -moz-image-region: rect(0px 480px 24px 456px); } #button-archive:hover { -moz-image-region: rect(24px 480px 48px 456px); } #button-archive[disabled] { -moz-image-region: rect(48px 480px 72px 456px) !important; }

For qute the css was already there, however, the mac main toolbar images are still missing an archive icon (this patch assumes one is added at the end of the image list) Andreas, know if the mac toolbar is being updated somewhere?

Comment on attachment 402386 [details] [diff] [review] proposed fix, v2 I think "Archive selected messages" is a fine tooltip but we've used the singluar "message" for all the other tooltips (forward, delete, file) so it's probably best to keep consistent. ui-r+ with that.

Comment on attachment 402386 [details] [diff] [review] proposed fix, v2 Purty, do it! Junk, Mark, and Tag are all plural, and I can't get the File tooltip to show at all, but I'm strongly disinclined to argue with anyone who has an opinion either way, much less with clarkbw :)

changeset: 3921:7c2eb92dd7ba http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/rev/7c2eb92dd7ba ->FIXED We decided on irc the goal should be plural - filed bug 518905 to make them consistent.
